Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have identified an unusual galaxy from the early universe that appears to be missing something scientists expected to find: rotation. Researchers say galaxies are generally [...]
In our Universe, there are galaxies that don't rotate around themselves. Astronomers think they know why. Because they are the result of a long process of multiple collisions. But a galaxy discovered less than 2 billion years after the Big Bang is putting the theory back on track...
