A mysterious class of small, red objects in the early universe might be explained by black holes inside dense cocoons of gas, like a star.. Since launching in 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope ...

The discovery of Little Red Dots has been one of the JWST’s most tantalizing revelations. Unlike typical Active Galactic Nuclei, which are extremely bright and often have large host galaxies, Little ...

Don’t worry, there won’t be a quiz at the end. The team’s research indicated that a large portion of the LRDs in question existed between 600 million and 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang.

For now, we don't really know how these Little Red Dot galaxies formed, and we will have to wait for more observations and more theoretical work. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

"Little red dot" galaxies discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope in the early cosmos appear to be ruled by supermassive black holes that are 1,000 times too massive.

Early data of “little red dots,” or LRDs, from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) appeared to suggest the presence of galaxies too massive to exist in our modern cosmological models.

Dale Kocevski, from Colby College in Maine, spoke during a press conference about the Little Red Dots (LRDs) found in data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). These are the same as the ...

Astronomers solve mystery of "little red dots" spotted by James Webb Space Telescope A new study on cosmic objects from early in the history of the universe were thought to be massive galaxies.

On a corner of each of Becker J. Gutsch’s hundreds of glass artworks is one little red dot. In most of Gutsch’s art, the little red dots are on the bottom right corner. If not, they are on ...

Webb's Little Red Dots Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Dale Kocevski, et al. This is an important step toward understanding the nature of LRDs, but we don't have it all figured out.

Scientists Studying Webb's 'Little Red Dots' Find New Population of Black Holes These mysterious objects only formed in the early universe and hosted a lot of very heavy singularities.
