The James Webb Space Telescope has found some bizarre things while peeking at the far corners of the universe. It spotted ancient galaxies that are big and bright, like they've been there forever. This is weird because our usual theories say they should be small and dim, slowly pulled together by something called dark matter. Dark matter is like an invisible force t...
NASA recently shared a fresh image of the Phantom Galaxy, also known as M74 and NGC 628. Unlike previous images, this one was captured using both the Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI) and Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). This combination allowed scientists from the FEAST team to observe star-forming regions more effectively. By ana...
As the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) captures breathtaking images of the universe, a new formation has sparked excitement among astronomers. Dubbed the "question mark pair," this intriguing alignment of distant galaxies and gravitational lensing has left scientists wondering about the mysteries of the universe's early stages. Gravitational lensing is a phenomeno...
The James Webb Space Telescope has made a groundbreaking discovery in the Extreme Outer Galaxy, capturing unprecedented images of star formation in the remote outskirts of the Milky Way. This region, located over 58,000 light-years from the Galactic Center, offers scientists a rare glimpse into star-forming environments that resemble the early days of our galaxy. The...
