"Unexpected Discovery: Scientists Stunned by Existence of Accidentally Found Dwarf Galaxy"
TL;DR Summary
Scientists accidentally discovered a dwarf galaxy, PEARLSDG, using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, challenging existing knowledge of galaxy formation. This isolated quiescent dwarf galaxy, located 98 million light years away, contradicts the understanding that dwarf galaxies either form new stars or interact with larger galaxies. The discovery suggests the existence of more isolated quiescent dwarf galaxies and raises questions about galaxy evolution.
