'The Independent' reports that astronomers have observed what they believe to be massive galaxies dating back to within 600 million years of the Big Bang.

.

According to a team out of Swinburne University of Technology, the observation suggests the early universe had a stellar fast-track that created these "monsters.".

While older galaxies have been observed before, what surprised scientists about these mega-galaxies was their size and maturity.

While most galaxies in this era are still small and only gradually growing larger over time, there are a few monsters that fast-track to maturity.

Why this is the case or how this would work is unknown, Ivo Labbe, lead researcher at Australia’s Swinburne University of Technology, via 'The Independent'.

'The Independent' reports that these galaxy observations came from the first data set collected by NASA and the European Space Agency's $10 billion Webb telescope.

.

The revelation that massive galaxy formation began extremely early in the history of the universe upends what many of us had thought was settled science, Joel Leja, Pennsylvania State University, via 'The Independent'.

It turns out we found something so unexpected it actually creates problems for science.

It calls the whole picture of early galaxy formation into question, Joel Leja, Pennsylvania State University, via 'The Independent'.

According to Pennsylvania State University’s Joel Leja, it's possible that a few of the massive objects might actually be supermassive black holes.

All six of the objects observed, whether galaxies or black holes, look to weigh billions of times more than our sun, with one of them weighing 100 billion times more.

Putin MOCKS Western Sanctions |Claims Russia Still Working With Western Scientists Despite Sanctions

Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared that Moscow continues scientific cooperation with Western experts despite heavy sanctions and political isolation. Speaking in Sarov, Russia’s nuclear hub, Putin insisted that science, like art and sports, cannot be destroyed by politics. He revealed that joint projects persist in nuclear, space, and medical research, even with some NATO states, while new ventures in nuclear medicine are emerging. According to Putin, Russia lost Finland as a partner but continues work with France, Germany, and Hungary through Rosatom. He stressed that Russia still supplies nuclear fuel and services to “unfriendly” countries, hinting that departing partners may eventually return. Putin also warned the West that restricting academic and scientific ties will inflict long-term damage. Despite sanctions, Russia and the U.S. recently extended collaboration on the International Space Station and discussed future lunar and deep-space missions. #Putin #Russia #Science #Sanctions #Research #Nuclear #Space #ISS #NASA #Rosatom #Innovation #Technology #Education #UkraineWar #Geopolitics #Unity #Europe #Cooperation #GlobalScience #Future ~HT.410~ED.102~
