We May Be Inside a Black Hole: Data from James Webb Space Telescope is Shocking

3 Mins Read

Scientists analyzing data from the James Webb Space Telescope have reached new findings. According to the research, most galaxies appear to be rotating in the same direction. This previously unforeseen interesting data could imply that we are actually inside a black hole. Researchers examining the data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) operated under NASA’s leadership have found a new and intriguing mystery. According to the research, most galaxies appear to be rotating in the same direction. This previously unforeseen interesting data could imply that we are actually inside a black hole. Known as the most powerful space telescope ever, the JWST can capture infrared light emitted by galaxies far away just 300 million years after the Big Bang. This allows it to look back much further in the past compared to other telescopes, even to the early days of the universe. However, the telescope’s strong observational capability also reveals new mysteries and questions. A discovery made by researchers at Kansas State University falls into this category of surprise. The team found that among the galaxies observed by the JWST, 105 (40%) of them were rotating counterclockwise, while 158 (60%) were rotating clockwise. In a research article published in the Royal Astronomical Society’s Monthly Notices journal, it was stated, “If observations truly reflect the structure of the universe, we can say that in the early universe, galaxies were more homogeneous in terms of the directions they rotated, and became more chaotic over time.” One possibility proposed by the authors of the study is that the universe exists within a larger universe and furthermore, that this larger universe is inside the interior of a black hole. Lior Shamir, one of the authors of the study, said, “One of the explanations is that the universe was born rotating. This explanation is in line with theories like black hole cosmology, which assume that the entire universe is inside the interior of a black hole.” Shamir also told IFL Science, “However, if the universe really did originate by rotating, it would mean that current theories about the cosmos are incomplete.” Nevertheless, much more evidence is needed to support such an explanation. The team is proposing another possibility. This possibility stems from the red or blue shift of light depending on how the object emitting the light moves relative to us, known as Doppler shift. Due to this effect, galaxies rotating in the opposite direction of the Milky Way appear brighter. This situation may have misled astronomers studying the rotation patterns of other galaxies in reaching their conclusions. Shamir said, “If this situation turns out to be true, we will need to recalibrate our distance measurements to observe the depths of the universe.”
