Speculations of a newly observed force for dark matter

Stumbled upon something quite interesting while browsing on my phone today. Anyway, I'm not here to explain it... Just to diffuse information, so here you go!

 

Wired - Galactic Pile-Up May Point to Mysterious New Dark Force in the Universe (note: fully a "pop sci" layman article, not for everyone)

 

Background info on Musket Ball Cluster and the related: Chandra Observatory (NASA) - Discovery of Musket Ball Cluster

 

I've never felt "pop science" news to be a reliable source, but since this marks a potential (major) discovery in physics, I've decided to share this. Of course, this is beyond tetantive as of now, so we'll likely have to wait a while to see what comes of it.

 

More info if you can share. Thoughts? Skepticism? Insights?
