A new mainstream paper just challenged the foundation of modern cosmology.
To explain the bright, fully-formed galaxies seen at high redshift by JWST, researchers modeled rapid star formation in the early universe — only to find that the resulting radiation could account for most, or even all, of the cosmic microwave background (CMB).
If true, this means the CMB may not be a relic of the Big Bang at all — but a local, reprocessed signal from galaxies.
And if the CMB falls, so do the redshift ladder, the expansion timeline, and the justification for dark matter and dark energy.
Is this just another patch? Or is it a sign the framework itself is cracking?
