The 'dark galaxy' VIRGOHI21 seems to be composed of an unusually high
proportion of darkmatter and is situated in a strong external gravitational
field. As such it offers a rare test for theories of modified dynamics. If the
system is bound then its dynamics are inconsistent with those predicted by
theMOND theory.
