The model shows: the chef black hole heats galactic gas, preventing stars from igniting, and ejects metal-rich material while pulling in fresh gas. This explains the near-total lack of heavy elements in galaxy Abell 2744-QSO1 and the unusual ratio of the hole's mass to stars.

In the James Webb Space Telescope's images, bright dots thought to be distant galaxies might actually be explosions of the first stars — pair-instability supernovae. These cosmic fireworks happen when a massive star made of pure hydrogen and helium is torn apart as light transforms into matter and a

Самую далёкую сверхновую SN Eos подтвердили, разложив её свет в спектр. Взрыв произошёл в среде, почти лишённой тяжёлых элементов, — прямое доказательство рождения массивных звёзд в ранней Вселенной. Открытие стало возможным только благодаря гравитационному линзированию и поможет уточнить темп рожде

Using a gravitational lens — a massive cluster of galaxies bending light — the James Webb Space Telescope detected two red dots in a distant galaxy. These are intermediate-mass black holes, located not in the center but on the outskirts. The discovery suggests such invisible objects might be widespr

Near the galaxy GN-z11, seen just 400 million years after the Big Bang, the James Webb Space Telescope spotted a bright spot. It glows with hot helium — such radiation can only come from very massive stars devoid of heavy elements, that is, the first generation. If confirmed, we are seeing for the f
