Together, dark matter and dark energy comprise roughly $$95\%$$ of our universe, and we're not sure what they are. Now that doesn't mean that we are clueless. In fact, there are a number of competing proposals that give detailed descriptions of these entities and experiments are winnowing down the number of valid theories.
