The Galaxy That Died Before Earth Was Born π #shortsAdded:
These galaxies broke every rule we thought we knew about the universe.
Scientists discovered galaxies that formed just 300 million years after the Big Bang. That shouldn't be possible.
Our model said galaxies needed billions of years to grow that large, but the James Webb Space Telescope proved us wrong. These ancient giants existed when the universe was still a baby. One galaxy called GS 9209 stopped forming stars over 12 billion years ago. It was already dead before our solar system was even born. We don't know how they formed so fast. We don't know why they stopped, and that terrifies astronomers. If this changed how you see the universe, subscribe.
More is coming.
