While questions about the universe abound, a James Webb Space Telescope image<\/a> has recently raised others.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The telescope’s high-resolution Near-Infrared Camera snapshot of a pair of forming young stars also caught what appears to be a cosmic question mark toward the bottom right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The stars, captured in near-infrared light, are known as Herbig-Haro 46\/47 and are buried in a disk of gas and dust.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Located just 1,470 light-years from Earth in the Vela Constellation, the object is just a few thousand years old. Over millions of years, NASA says, the stars will fully form.<\/p>\n

The space agencies working on the telescope explain that, in the background of the shot, lie extremely distant galaxies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Blue objects with diffraction spikes are stars, and the closer they are, the larger they appear. White-and-pink spiral galaxies sometimes appear larger than these stars, but are significantly farther away. The tiniest red dots, Webb\u2019s infrared specialty, are often the oldest, most distant galaxies,” the European Space Agency<\/a> noted.<\/p>\n

What punctuates the image may be up for debate \u2013 but scientists told Space.com earlier this month it is likely a galaxy, or galaxies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It is probably a distant galaxy,<\/a> or potentially interacting galaxies (their interactions may have caused the distorted question mark-shape),” representatives of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI), which manages Webb’s science operations, told Space.com.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to the institute, the object’s reddish hue in the image indicates that the object is quite distant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This may be the first time we’ve seen this particular object,” it added. “Additional follow-up would be required to figure out what it is with any certainty. Webb is showing us many new, distant galaxies \u2013 so there’s a lot of new science to be done!”<\/p>\n

Matt Caplan, an assistant professor of physics at Illinois State University, also told Space.com that the object might be two galaxies merging \u2013 although noting that there are plenty of additional possibilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
