šØJAMES WEBB TELESCOPE FINDS āIMPOSSIBLEā LIGHT FROM EARLY GALAXY
NASAās James Webb Telescope just spotted a galaxy thatās basically screaming across 13 billion years of space-timeāwhen it definitely shouldnāt be.
JADES-GS-z13-1, seen only 330 million years postāBig Bang, is blasting out Lyman-alpha light, which shouldāve been blocked by the thick hydrogen fog smothering the early universe.
That kind of light is like trying to shine a flashlight through soupāand yet, here it is, beaming at us.
Scientists are now scrambling to explain how this baby galaxy cleared the fog. Supercharged ancient stars? A prehistoric black hole?
Whatever it is, our models of the early universe just got absolutely cooked.
