The Big Bang Conundrum: Unraveling JWST's Mystifying Findings on the Early Universe

In this riveting exploration of the cosmos, we delve into the latest findings from the James Webb Space Telescope and how they challenge our understanding of the universe's origins. Discoveries of six galaxies from mere hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang have baffled scientists, possessing up to 100 times the mass predicted by current theories.

This video takes you through an enigmatic cosmic journey, questioning our current cosmological understanding and compelling us to reconsider our theories about the universe's creation. We also explore the tantalizing mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, which, while invisible, account for approximately 95% of the universe.

Join us as we traverse through the perplexing paradoxes and fascinating theories presented by some of the greatest minds in cosmology. From theories about the inflation of the early universe to the intriguing idea of other universes' existence, this video delves into the heart of our cosmic mysteries. We also tackle the potential of the JWST to illuminate these enigmas by observing the universe's infancy and the mysterious dark energy and dark matter.

Step into the unknown with us as we embark on this exciting cosmic quest, pushing the boundaries of knowledge, and inching closer to the truth about the origins of our universe.

This is honestly so refreshing to hear and see when every day is an absolute grind to get through. It allows me ponder my place in the universe and its oddly comforting...

I freaking LOVE THIS STUFF!!!! 🤩 One thing I've noticed, even as a child, was that the way we measure space and time is so relative - we look at things on terms of years and light-years, but this is based on our one planet, circling our one star. It's so limited and insignificant on the scale of the rest of the Universe!

We don't know what we don't know, and THAT IS FASCINATING!!!

Brain Greene has a good combo of openness and discernment. Favorite physicist.

I love when scientists are confused. Lots of new work ahead.

Maybe it looks confusing because scientists assume that time passes in the entire universe the same way as it passes on earth

Thank you....hsieh hsie....merci....mille grazie

A Catholic priest was the father of that theory. Science will win. Great job JWST. Best of luck.

We teach into a box, you don't really start using your imagination until graduate school. So for 16 years of your education you are taught to memorize and regurgitate. Thinking "outside the box" is not encouraged by any means. After collage you go to a job and follow a prescribed set of rules and procedures.

An excellent overview of things as they are.

What may now be needed is for a meeting of experts to be called that is multi-disciplinary and sensitive to diversity and inclusivity.
The goal of such meeting would be to look at where we are today in the universe from a theological, scientific and philosophical perspective to come up with a blue print on issues that have divided science for decades. Issues on which consensus could be built include but are not limited to how was universe created; what exactly happened at the big bang; what is the true role of black holes and what chemistry goes on there; what is dark energy and dark matter; what is anti-matter; what is gravity and antigravity; from the contemporary theories about the universe how best can one equation capture the long between the classical and quantum world's;

Because of where we are now, such an activity, undertaken within a rapid results initiative strategy could take at most 2 weeks to produce results.

Organizations such as the the institute of arts and ideas (iai) of the UK and any other like-minded ones can be tasked with the task of convening

Because the world has been waiting for guidance of these issues for close to a century, I would imagine that this proposal could be taken up like yesterday to bring these paradoxes to a finality so that science can move to greater heights in this 21st century and beyond, so I think

>six massive galaxies are found
>they formed a few hundred million years after the big bang
>the Milky way is estimated to be around 13.6 billion years hence it appeared a few hundred million years (13.770-13.600 = 170 million years after the big bang)
Are they much more massive than the Milky way?
Does it mean that we are in the relative center of the universe?
What is the conundrum?

So it expanded that quick that the light of the beginning got stretched so much we can't see it with our measuring instruments

The initial reactions to JWST illustrate perfectly what happens when paradigm paralysis has set in. Cosmologists can't stop thinking in terms of the big bang, dark matter and energy, black holes etc. and want to continue on the basis of elaboration of existing theory. Many are too indoctrinated/fearful to consider critically re-examining a whole bunch of theory going back all the way to Einstein with his curved space, and including ideas like the cosmic red shift. But, for instance, they reject out of hand ideas like intrinsic red shift and tired light theory as possibly having a significant tole to play. IMHO, the notion that quasars are distant objects of huge luminosity is ludicrous. They are plainly much fainter objects that can appear in the forground of relatively closer galaxies, even palpably visibly connected to them in certain instances.

Consider: the electrostatic force is 10^39 stronger than the gravitational force, and is all-pervasive in the universe. Isn't there the faintest chance that it might have some role to play in its evolution? That concentrating almost exclusively on gravity is what has led to the extraordinary proliferation of woo-woo we are pleased to think of as cosmology? What has happened to commonsense, and why do so many cosmologists love to revel in their semi-mystical playgrounds? My theory is that they enjoy playing games with mathematics, and the quirkier their ideas, the more excited they get. And, the more important it allows them to feel. There's no shortage of like-minded supporters, and tgether they form an almost religious coterie of self-congratulatory yet profoundly befuddled and befuddling influencers.

What is annoying is when the 'experts' ridicule those of us for putting our thoughts/theories forward because they are so cock sure we have no idea what we are talking about, hmm, que sera sera.

Mayb Magnetic propulsion is one of the key major remarks during the big bang...or whatever they name it. Cz other Fundamental forces are already present in every corner or the universe, whenever they are needed the emerge according to the necessity of the formetive celestial body. A 3rd party catalyst force was needed to trigger the fusion during the bang. Then comes the origin of materials, in that case in my opinion, all the materials were mystified in a single celestial body...which may not be formed or be founded again. It just blown up from the inner side when a 3rd party force activated from molecular reactions in neutron or proton scale. In my guess that force is either Magnetic force or any other force yet uninvented.

My idea so I get to name it! Voyager 1 is now in interstellar time or "Mikey's Time." "V-ger's" message has sped up now that it's outside our suns time bubble or, "Terran Time."  It will be faster still when "V-ger" sends a message from beyond the Milky Way's time bubble. (That name is still up for grabs.) Then there's Outside the Local Group time bubble, so on and so on until we get to the, "True Interstellar Time Standard."  Now that "V-ger" is in interstellar space, it's also in the Milky Way's STANDARD, faster moving, interstellar time or "Mikey's Time."  This can be proven by turning off everything except its clock and transmitter.  Have "V-ger" read time for as long as possible.  They WILL show the flow of time speeds up the further away you get from any celestial bodies.  Until you reach the Milky Way's time standard or "Mikey's Time."
•Our sun's time bubble: "Terran Time" we know and have measured.
•Milky Way's time bubble or "Mikey's Time." The rate/flow of TIME outside any influence but within the Milky Way: We just got there and are still figuring. Wild guess I'd say time will increase in speed, now and until V-ger is outside the Ort cloud .007-.07% faster, maybe. Just for reference.
•Local Group's time bubble or the rate/flow of time outside of any influence but within the Local Group: Name still open and unknown. Wild guess .08% to a couple seconds faster, maybe. Used just for reference.
•Outside any influence in the, "True Interstellar Time Standard, " or...;-P Name NOT up for grabs BUT just begging to be measured. The rate/flow of time is fastest here.  (Time flows fastest here so it's best to have your motor boat.) ;-P
A minute is a minute in all. It's the rate/flow I'm talking about.
The Milky Way's Interstellar Time Standard will be known as, "Mikey's Time."
Pass it on, please and thank you.

I hope they let the James Webb telescope find Galaxys old then the big bang

A layman visualization. Imagine a water drain as a simplistic visualization of a black hole. Run the visualization backwards for A simplistic visualization of a white hole. Every thing has travelled through the center, leading to landing on expanding spacetime. Time is the constant that without it, we can locate the center where Big Bang happened on the space. But, time is like the strings of balloons coming together in a knot (Big Bang), leading to space where the strings of time have brought the space expanding forward in all directions. Everything was at one place in one time therefore everywhere was the center of the Big Bang universe at one time. In search for where it began, , you tell me where the beginning of a circle is, and I tell you where you think the circle ends. If you think of the circle or sphere as an expanding circle or sphere, the focal point is the beginning of the circle or sphere and the center at one time, was every point in the circumference of the circle or the sphere. The center of the universe is a location hidden by time and out of our reach by 13.8 billion expanding years, plus out of our visual range by minimum of additional 33 billion light years of viewed expansion in a 93 billion light year visual horizon, which in that picture only, we’re the focal point (center).

It may actually be an additional function of the theory of INFLATION by Alan Guth.

As the Big Bang occurred Gravity may have repulsively separated from the just existing single unified(all 4) force.
Causing Inflation from the size of a molecule to the size of a galaxy in almost an instant.
Then as energy and matter suddenly reached such volume and mass, Gravity assumed it's function ad a single force(with space and time).
This Gravity Rules suddenly slowed and changed the velocity of expansion, speed of light becomes constant.

It was this SUDDEN RECESSION OF INFLATION
THAT PLUNGED THE NEWLY HOT FORGED EARLY UNIVERSE INTO THE EXTREME COLD OF SPACE. A PROCESS TO, TEMPER THE EARLY UNIVERSE.
ALLOWING FOR EARLY CONGLOMERATION OF DARK MATTER & FORMATION OF MASSIVE STARS & FORMATION OF HEAVY ELEMENTS

I can’t help but feel somewhat Vindicated when i hear one of the most vocal and “Respected” proponents of “superstring theory” express his utter contempt of Scientific Method! But it’s Very Distressing at the same time.😮😢
