Quantoretta

What is now incorrectly termed "dark matter" is actually a three-dimensional field of particles called quantoretta (plural). Each individual particle is called a quantoretto, the smallest unit of Universal matter, which is electromagnetic (among other unknown, yet-to-be-determined forces) in nature.

Quantoretta are the entities that allow communication across the Universe to be orders of magnitude faster than the speed of light.

Coined in 2001 by William Dean A. Garner in an unpublished novel.
Quantoretta can be harnessed to "see" trillions of light years into the Universe, and allow space travel from Earth.
