Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that dark matter exists and makes up about 27 percent of the universe's mass-energy?

Yes. NASA and a Columbia dissertation state that dark matter exists and makes up about 27 percent of the universe's mass-energy, matching the claim. Several other sources confirm dark matter's existence but give only approximate or different figures (about one-quarter, or 83 percent of matter).
