The James Webb Space Telescope has potentially identified the first definitive signatures of dark stars, mysterious objects powered by dark matter rather than nuclear fusion. These findings could explain several cosmic mysteries, including the rapid formation of supermassive black holes in the early universe. Researchers detected key spectral evidence that points to these bizarre celestial bodies.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have captured the strongest evidence yet for the existence of dark stars – hypothetical celestial objects powered by dark matter annihilation rather than conventional nuclear fusion. This potential discovery, revealed through analysis of four distant cosmic objects, could fundamentally reshape our understanding of stellar evolution and solve long-standing mysteries about the early universe’s rapid development.
