The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has provided many answers about the origins of the universe since it was launched in December 2021. It is also continuously giving rise to new questions. What puzzled astronomers worldwide from a recent image was an object located just below the stars resembling a giant question mark in space.

Could the universe be asking us a question?

On June 26, for instance, experts from the European Space Agency released a new image captured by JWST offering a detailed look at two actively forming young stars located in the Vela Constellation – about 1,470 light-years away from Earth – and known as Herbig-Haro 46/47.

Intriguing patterns in space​

“Ever since astronomers have turned their eyes to the stars, we have been tempted to discern patterns in what we find up there. Many nebulae, which are clouds of interstellar gas, and galaxies have been named for their apparent forms, though most of these patterns noticed by early astronomers have become rather harder to see as telescopes have improved and the details in each object have become clearer,” said Gregory Brown, an astronomer at the Royal Observatory Greenwich.……..

If this isn't a hoax (and I expect it isn't), I'm betting there will be at least six to seven science fiction novels within the coming year using this object as part of the story.

They're probably already filming a Dr. Who episode about it... 😏
