I don't think it's nearly powerful enough.
If it were possible to safely observe particle collisions inside a black hole or a supernova/hypernova, you would observe something interesting. But not the LHC or the micky mouse Fermilab.
Dark matter, for example. Not a freaking chance of proving that one.
Oh sure, it exists right enough (computer simulations and gravitational lensing suggest very strongly it's out there somewhere) but it's a shy animal.
It's unreactive to the Nth degree and only seems to exert a gravitational effect at the macro level (stars).
It doesn't even influence planets in orbit.
