James Webb smells someone having barbecue in galaxy 12 billion light years away
In a statement, Spiker said:"By combining Webb's amazing capabilities with a natural 'cosmic magnifying glass,' we were able to see even more detail than we otherwise could. That level of magnification is actually what made us interested in looking at this galaxy with Webb in the first place, because it really lets us see all the rich details of what makes up a galaxy in the early universe that we could never do otherwise.
Spiker said:"These big molecules are actually pretty common in space. Astronomers used to think they were a good sign that new stars were forming. Anywhere you saw these molecules, baby stars were also right there blazing away." But the new data shows areas with aromatic hydrocarbons but no star formation, while other areas have new stars forming but no signs of the indicative molecules.
Spicer promised to continue the search to uncover the process at hand in star formation in the early stages of the universe's evolution."The only way to know for sure is to look at more galaxies, hopefully even further away than this one," he said. ®
