NASA makes surprising discovery at the end of our universe: 'It shouldn't exist'

NASA's James Webb Telescope has made a surprising discovery at the edge of our universe, which astronomers said should not exist. The telescope captured imagery of three 12.8-billion-year-old 'Red Monster' galaxies, one billion years after the Big Bang, roughly the size of the Milky Way. The researchers call these newly discovered galaxies 'Red Monsters' due to their gigantic size and high dust content, which gives them a distinct red appearance in telescope images The researchers are calling the three most recently discovered ones 'Red Monsters' due to their gigantic size and high dust content, which gives them a distinct red appearance in telescope images Wuyts and his colleagues conducted their study as part of the JWST First Reionization Epoch Spectroscopically Complete Observations survey. A JWST survey published in February 2023 found six galaxies that formed just 500 to 700 million years after the Big Bang, and are 100 times more massive than they should be This research adds to a growing body of galaxy observations that contradict this understanding, demonstrating that we still have much to learn about the early universe. For example, a JWST survey published in February 2023 found six galaxies that formed just 500 to 700 million years after the Big Bang, and are 100 times more massive than astronomers would expect them to be.
