James Webb’s telescope discovered a “copy” of Milky Way

The Galaxy J0107a has a structure similar to the Milky Way, but the stars are faster 300 times.

Astronomers have discovered a galaxy in the distant universe, which is amazing – resembling our Milky Way – however, bigger and active. The discovery was reported by Reuters with a reference to a study published in the Nature magazine.

We are talking about the Galaxy J0107A, which has seen 11.1 billion years ago, that is, in the first part of the universe.

The study of the object is engaged in the group of scientists with the help of Space Telescope James Webb. They found that the J0107A had a spiral shape with a bar – a straight stripe of stars and gas passing through the middle, as in our galaxy. But at the same time:

• His mass is ten times more than Milky Way,

• Star formation speed is 300 times more intense,

• And it’s more compact in size.

This is a surprise, as it is believed that such ordered galaxies have emerged later. Most of the “Star Monsters” of that time were formed as a result of the quarrels and there was a chaotic structure.

J0107A is one of the most ancient famous galaxies with a jumper (bar). Such a structure is important, as it acts as a “star nursery” – administers gas in the middle of the galaxy, where new stars are born. The length of this galaxy bar is about 50 thousand light years.

This discovery makes astronomers change their ideas about building galaxies.

Earlier it was reported that scientists learned how the Earth felt the day -to -day shrines.
