The presence of skeletal structures of the same distinctive topology (cartwheels, tubules, etc.), in the range 10^{-5} - 10^23 cm, and a trend toward self-similarity of these structures are found. These evidences come from the electron micrography of dust deposits in tokamak (10^{-6} - 10^{-3}cm), the images of plasma taken in laboratory electric discharges -- tokamaks, Z-pinches, plasma focus and vacuum spark (10^{-2} - 10 cm), hail particles (1-10 cm), the images of tornado (10^3 - 10^5 cm), the Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-Ray Observatory public archives' images (up to 10^23 cm). The redshift surveys of galaxies and quasars suggests the possibility to draw the above similarity farther, up to 10^26 cm. The above similarity hints at the presence of a baryonic cold dark skeleton (BCDS) of the Universe, which -- in the entire range 10^{-5} - 10^26 cm -- may contain ordinary matter in a fractal condensed form like that in the above-mentioned dust skeletons and hail particles. The probable compatibility of the BCDS with the major cosmological facts (Hubble's expansion and cosmic microwave background) is suggested. Our former hypotheses (and the respective proof-of-concept studies) for the probable microscopic mechanisms of skeleton's assembling, chemical composition, and survivability in ambient hot plasmas are discussed briefly. The respective major cosmological implication is that the purely gravitational description of the large-scale structure of the Universe is likely to be appended with a contribution of quantum electromagnetism, presumably in the form of a skeleton self-assembled from tubular nanostructures (carbon nanotubes or similar nanostructures of other chemical elements).
