Popis: Empirical mass estimates for the enigmatic galactic dark matter objects (GDMOs), which account for most of the mass of the universe, but remain unidentified, are compared with the definitive predictions of a discrete fractal model of the cosmos. Trends in the reported mass estimates are identified and uncertainties are discussed. Intriguing similarities among various stellar and dark matter mass functions are noted, and a possible identification of the galactic dark matter objects is suggested.
