The James Webb Space Telescope has captured detailed imagery of the ancient star Earendel, the most distant star ever detected. Surprisingly, the telescope has revealed evidence that Earendel may have a companion, a cooler red star. This finding challenges previous expectations and suggests that binary star systems are more common than previously thought. Earendel was discovered through the magnifying effect of a massive galaxy cluster, which warped the fabric of space and allowed astronomers to observe it. The star, located 12.9 billion light-years away, is incredibly hot and bright, making it a fascinating object for study.
