So, it‘s not a brown dwarf. See, I watch your videos. 😊

Anton, please, this is the 5th time this month a red shifted galaxy has broken the cosmological model.

So are they sure it's actually a galaxy this time around? 😂

Observations make sense, the model is what needs to be refined. What doesn't make sense is assuming these first order models will survive detailed experiments or observations. I would no longer equate redshift with age at these distances. Time to accept not knowing for a little bit.

And they're sure that this isn't an brown dwarf again?

One of these days, science is going to have to deal with a discovery that shows a huge number of large galaxies existing almost instantly after the big bang, and they won't know what the hell to do with the information. I mean, the odds of this one being the oldest are very slim.

Okay, I was about to bring it up but you addressed the dwarf in the room.

Perhaps a dumb question but -- Couldn't this galaxy be older but just going fast away from us, and with the universe expansion ended up far away?

I hear "that was unexpected" so much with each new discovery. All this "unexpected" stuff just shows the current model of cosmology is broken, we understand less then we think.

oh yeah thanks for reminding me, I forgot I left it lying over there
