New research suggests the James Webb Space Telescope could help scientists understand dark matter by studying oddly shaped early galaxies. These elongated galaxies may form due to dark matter’s gravitational behaviour, offering indirect clues about whether ultralight or warm dark matter particles shaped the early universe.New research suggests the James Webb Space Telescope could help scientists understand dark matter by studying oddly shaped early galaxies.
