A key to a parallel universe: why do comets burn up and vanish far quicker than they should? One that they are made of `mirror matter' - could help to explain the greatest mystery of our universe

In-depth review of Robert Foot's new book "Shadowlands". Foot believes he can identify 'dark matter' and solve problems as diverse as why comets seem to disappear after passing close to the sun and why ortho-positronium disintegrates 0.1 per cent faster than QED predicts (1...
