The Secrets of the Universe | Webb Spots Question Mark in Space @TheSecretsoftheUniverse | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
A giant cosmic question mark has been spotted in space by the James Webb Space Telescope. This spooky object was hiding in an image of the two actively forming young stars located 1,470 light-years from Earth. It's unclear exactly what the question mark-shaped object might be, but its color and shape give us some idea. Astronomers believe it’s a distant galaxy or potentially interacting galaxies distorted by tidal disruption. Also, its red color in the image hints that the object, whatever it may be, is quite distant. Even more exciting, this might be the first time astronomers have seen the cosmic question mark. Astronomers now aim to make detailed observations of this object using JWST. The telescope is opening up a whole new window into the early universe, and we can expect to see many more amazing discoveries in the years to come.
