In recent observations, Webb has detected strange objects in deep space that do not match anything scientists have seen before. At first, these objects appeared to be galaxies, but researchers are not entirely sure. In fact, some scientists believe they might be something completely unknown-objects that do not fit into any existing category in astronomy.
This discovery is particularly puzzling because scientists had already been struggling to explain the small red dots found in earlier Webb images. These dots were unlike any known galaxies and did not match the expected properties of early universe structures. Now, in the newest set of images, scientists have spotted even more of these mysterious objects. What’s even more shocking is that these new objects show unusual properties-characteristics that suggest they may not even belong to our known universe. The existence of these objects is causing a major debate among scientists. According to everything we currently know about space and the laws of physics, these objects should not be there. If these are galaxies, they are nothing like the ones we have studied before. If they are something else, then we might be looking at an entirely new type of cosmic phenomenon. So, what exactly did scientists find?
Well A recent image from the James Webb Telescope revealed a small, point-like object. Upon closer observation, scientists identified it as a high-redshift galaxy called GHZ2, located at a redshift corresponding to approximately 400 million years after the Big Bang. Further studies confirmed that a supermassive black hole sits at the center of this galaxy, making it exceptionally luminous. Interestingly, just like previous discoveries by the Webb Telescope, this galaxy is much larger than expected, challenging our current theories of galaxy formation in the early universe. But what worries scientists even more is that recent observations have uncovered additional small red objects. However, this time, researchers argue that these red objects may not be galaxies at all, raising even deeper questions about their true nature. A recent finding showed that three little red dots have a relatively old and evolved stellar population. At first, scientists thought these red dots had supermassive black holes at their centers, which could explain their bright glow. However, new red objects revealed the presence of a Balmer break-a jump in the galaxy spectrum at the Balmer line-typically seen in older stars. This suggests that these red dots are actually filled with bright, old stars rather than being powered by massive black holes. What is even more concerning for scientists is that many observations suggest the presence of supermassive black holes at the center of these small red objects-something that cannot be ignored. These findings have created a major challenge in the field of cosmology. Some scientists are even arguing that these objects may not be galaxies at all but something entirely different. In fact, NASA scientists have referred to these mysterious objects as a new class of galaxies.
