[The Epoch Times, October 21, 2023](Compiled and reported by Epoch Times reporter Linda) Images of some of the earliest galaxies in the universe taken by the James Webb Space Telescope have puzzled scientists for months as they try to understand the universe and its evolution. Is the Standard Model completely broken? A new study finally sheds light on this puzzling phenomenon, proving that existing models are not completely broken. The study, published October 3 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, explains how bursts of star formation in early galaxies captured by the Webb Telescope could lead to “impossible” super brightness levels . If true, the theory could help make sense of the puzzling discovery, which has many astronomers concerned about whether previous models are still valid. The new study, which relies heavily on computer simulations, helps scientists show that deviations from the standard cosmological model must be related to multiple bursts of star formation, because these low-mass galaxies in the early universe did not yet have enough gas. , dust, and stars to create such bright and vivid images. Space telescopes like Webb are indeed helping us learn more about the early universe, but some of these discoveries have the potential to upend entire models of how the universe evolved since the Big Bang. If these simulations are to be believed, existing models are not broken, they just haven’t accounted for the possibilities. The research team includes astrophysicists from Northwestern University and other renowned institutions. What’s interesting about this solution is that it helps to detail deviations in the model of the universe without changing it entirely. Of course, Webb is sure to uncover many other mysteries, including those about the formation of stars and planets as a whole. In fact, recent Webb images of the Orion Nebula are helping us better understand how those star-forming regions in space evolve. ◇ Editor in charge: Ye Ziwei
