"Scientists here on Earth should be able to use spectroscopy to identify
those interstellar molecules -- by demonstrating which molecules in the
laboratory have the same absorptive "fingerprints." But despite decades
of effort, the identity of the molecules that account for the diffuse
interstellar bands remains a mystery. Nobody has been able to reproduce
the exact same absorption spectra in laboratories here on Earth."

Actually, it's trivial.

Have patience with everything in your heart and try to love
the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or
books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for
the answers, which could not be given to you now, because
you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to
live everything. Live the question now. Perhaps then,
someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even
noticing it, live your way into the answer.

"Diffuse Interstellar Bands are ripples."
Well, technically they are ripples upon ripples.
Upon ripples.

"All atoms are known to emit a distinct pattern of light known as spectrum and this is how
scientists are able to know what celestial objects such as stars and planets are made of
even from great distances. While studying the spectrum from the Andromeda galaxy and the
Perseus galaxy cluster, however, the researchers have detected spikes where nothing should exist.
Because the signal does not correspond to any known particle or atom, the researchers
suspect

"Astronomers from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey have created a unique map of enigmatic
molecules in our galaxy that are responsible for puzzling features in the light from stars.
These puzzling features, which astronomers call diffuse interstellar bands, or DIBs,
have been a mystery ever since they were discovered by astronomer Mary Lea Heger in 1922.
Further research showed that these mysterious lines were caused by a variety of molecules.
But exactly which of the many thousands of possible molecules are responsible for these
features has remained a mystery for almost a century."
And as a sword to the heart of those
I pictured the headline...
And couldn't let that money train leave the station.
Well, that's easy. Almost nothing.
The wikipedia page for this 100 year old problem contains just nine references.
The 2005 entry -- the most recent -- is mere cataloging.
Clearly tEmP theories haven't got a clue.
"There are dark lines in space, and they hide in the light. We've known that
they're there for nearly a hundred years, but we still don't know what they
actually are. All we know is what we call them -- diffuse interstellar bands
-- and that they mean that something is out there in space that we haven't identified.
"[In the] twenties, Mary Lea Heger spotted the first example
of what has become an enduring mystery. She noticed that a binary star system's
spectrum of light -- the rainbow-like range of wavelengths of light emitted by
bright objects -- had gone dark in a couple of places. This wasn't unusual.
These were absorption lines. Certain atoms or molecules absorb certain wavelengths
of light while letting other wavelengths through. These absorbed wavelengths show
up as dark lines on the continuum of color in a spectrum."
"What was unusual was these lines weren't shifting. Generally, in a binary system,
the stars are moving toward and away from the viewer on Earth. As they move,
their spectrum lines shift, much the way the sound of a car horn shifts if it's
moving towards or away from you. These lines weren't shifting."
"After some analysis, it was discovered that the lines weren't shifting because
they came from material that was between the stars, not part of them, but to
this day, no one has been able to lock down what exactly these lines are.
"These lines are different. Scientists think these absorption lines are the sign
of complex molecules...[but] Nobody has found any that can exactly correspond to the DIBs.
"So what could the DIBs be?... We don't know."
"All we
tEmP theories desperately hope a "they" are up there.
A more honest statement?
(2) the Existing mainstream Physics theories haven't got a clue.
(3) Spring-And-Loop Theory does.
This hilarious story
appeared just as I finished "COASALT: DIBs":
Quoting: "the spectrum measured in the lab did show absorption features at
two [ed: out of the ~400 known] wavelengths that were near
two DIB that had been discovered by astronomers the following year."
So, if they were discovered "the following year" then they are new DIBs
-- that must be extremely minor to have taken 100 years to be noticed.
This is the kind of thing that is created and then "found".
That's always a fun way to find something "significant" --
make it up, then look for it.
Even if one tries to make this appear meaningful, it would
require nature to create whole bunches of buckminsterfullerenes.
With the odds of this happening by chance** about the
same as a million monkeys typing up every work...of tEmP theories.
Wait, was this article published the following April 1st?

article at least asks the right question:

"Will we ever solve the mystery of diffuse interstellar bands?"
You mean, they "must be" between the stars, to fit in with tEmP theories.
"The absorption lines, called diffuse interstellar bands, or DIBs, pop out all
over the electromagnetic spectrum."
But good luck trying to find a list of all DIBs. Clearly, research is at a standstill.
All we see -- everywhere -- is an unlabeled
wikipedia graphic. Pretty pictures do not a science make.
