Milky Way’s Dark Matter Halo Shape Revealed by Galactic Disk Warp

This image shows two panels side by side. The right panel illustrates a spinning top precessing due to gravitational force. The left panel depicts the Galactic disk warp, which behaves similarly to the spinning top. The warp moves in a graceful pattern under the influence of the dark matter halo's gravitational pull. This illustration was created by HOU Kaiyuan and DONG Zhanxun from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
