"Scientists Uncover Enigmatic Galaxy Devoid of Visible Stars"

Astronomers have discovered a bizarre galaxy, J0613+52, located 270 million light-years away, that appears to have no visible stars, consisting only of gas. This massive blob of gas, resembling a spiral galaxy without stars, could be the first discovery of a nearby primordial galaxy, mostly made up of gas that formed at the beginning of time. The accidental discovery was made using the Green Bank Observatory, and further study of this unique object could provide valuable insights into the early stages of galaxy formation.
