"Unbelievable Discoveries: Astronomers Stunned by Impossible Galaxies"

TL;DR Summary
Astronomers have discovered a faint, isolated dwarf galaxy named PEARLSDG, located 98 million light-years away with no known neighbors, challenging current understanding of galaxy evolution. This inactive dwarf galaxy, found in the background of an image taken by Nasa's James Webb Space Telescope, contradicts previous observations of isolated dwarf galaxies, which typically show star-formation activity. The discovery, published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, provides new insights into galaxy formation and challenges existing theories.
