Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to show how the dark matter predictions of FSC differ with respect to the standard cosmology assertion of a universal dark matter-to-visible matter ratio of approximately 5.3-to-1. FSC predicts the correct ratio to be approximately 9-to-1, based primarily on the universal observations of global spatial flatness in the context of general relativity. The FSC Friedmann equations incorporating a Lambda Λ cosmological term clearly indicate that a spatially flat universe must have equality of the positive curvature (matter mass-energy) and negative curvature (dark energy) density components. Thus, FSC predicts that observations of the Milky Way and the nearly co-moving galaxies within 100 million light years will prove the 5.3-to-1 ratio to be incorrect. The most recent galactic and perigalactic observations indicate a range of dark matter-to-visible matter ratios varying from essentially zero (NGC 1052-DF2) to approximately 23-to-1 (Milky Way). The latter ratio is simply astonishing and promises an exciting next few years for astrophysicists and cosmologists. Within the next few years, the mining of huge data bases (especially the Gaia catalogue and Hubble data) will resolve whether standard cosmology will need to change its current claims for the cosmic energy density partition to be more in line with FSC, or whether FSC is falsified. A prediction is that standard cosmology must eventually realize the necessity of resolving the tension between their flatness observations and their assertion of dark energy dominance. The author makes the further prediction that FSC will soon become the new paradigm in cosmology.

Introduction and BackgroundIn sharp contrast to standard cosmology, Flat Space Cosmology (FSC) makes quite a number of predictions which would invalidate the theory if proven false.Many of these predictions can be derived from the FSC Friedmann equation which must always hold true in FSC [1]: (1) 8π G 8π GWherein the left-hand term is the total matter energy density and the right-hand term is the dark energy density

Summary
In sharp contrast to standard cosmology, Flat Space Cosmology (FSC) makes quite a number of predictions which would invalidate the theory if proven false. The average ratio may be calculated by dividing the sum of the dark matter numerators by the total number of nearby co-moving galaxies reliably measured. One can assume that the ratio of 1.3 × 1012 solar masses to 0.54 × 1011 solar masses is an excellent approximation of the Milky Way dark matter-to-visible matter ratio This is how the author calculated the ratio and percentage numbers in the prior paragraph. These very recent observations ranging from 0% galactic and perigalactic dark matter (NGC 1052-DF2) to 95.85% dark matter within the virial volume of the Milky Way galaxy must be somewhat jarring to standard model proponents. Regardless, standard cosmology must eventually realize the necessity of resolving the tension between their flatness observations and their current assertion of dark energy dominance
