      The universe is made up from all the elements you see in the periodic table, all in different combinations. There are also all sorts of other particles (you may have heard of some of them, like the Higgs Boson and neutrinos) that make lots of physics like gravity work.

      According to Nasa, who know much more about this kind of stuff than I do, the universe is 68% dark energy and 27% dark matter!

      There is more info on the nasa website here:
