I found two recent "Einstein" telescopes. One was Einstein's own telescope, recently re-discovered. The other is the one in Chicago.

One or the other could verify it, using gravitational lensing. The reason I say even Einstein's old telescope could do it is that recently a simple one attached to a weather balloon caught a dark-matter event that the sophisticated telescopes missed.

I don't know about a warp in time discovering dark matter. Seems like those would have to be verified first, before using them to verify something else.

Asker's Rating:
• I've order Einstein Telescope from the library. It sounds like dark matter creates a lens that magnifies other objectives five fold. It is like looking into a lens created by time/space warp into the past. Cool stuff.

I guess, if you can see further into the past because of dark matter, it means more information about the early Universe will be discovered.
