Astronomers Say They've Finally Solved the "Little Red Dots" Mystery

"The James Webb Space Telescope has observed faint, compact galaxies, potentially revealing fundamental insights into early universe structures, challenging current astrophysical principles."

"These early galaxies, described as extremely compact, raise questions about their formation and density, possibly existing in slow-spinning dark matter halos."

The James Webb Space Telescope spotted faint red signals in deep space, believed to be compact galaxies. These galaxies are approx. 2% the diameter of the Milky Way, raising concerns about their stellar density and formation. They are too faint to be quasars. Avi Loeb and his colleague propose these tiny galaxies evolved within slow-spinning dark matter halos, as most halos rotate faster. This aligns with current theories of galaxy formation involving dark matter, which influences significant cosmic structures despite being invisible to us.
