James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provided us with other interesting images from the depths of space. This time it’s a nebula Orion, which he photographed using his NIRcam camera, i.e. in the infrared spectrum, with both shorter and longer wavelengths. Each picture thus reveals something a little different, and the most interesting thing about them is that we see here about 150 objects with a mass similar to that of Jupiter. But that would not be as surprising as the fact that we have 42 paired planets. That is why they earned the name JuMBO (Jupiter Mass Binary Objects).
However, according to current knowledge about the creation of the universe and planets, the creation of such objects should not be possible, so scientists are now puzzling over what they actually see and why (they look a bit like optical defects created when taking pictures through double glass). According to the findings so far, objects of this size should not arise only from clouds of dust and gas, and certainly not in pairs. As a result, this may mean that our current knowledge about the issue is false.
At the same time, Orion is a long and often studied nebula (it is about 1350 light-years away), but only the JWST telescope brought images where we can observe something like this. While brown dwarfs can be 13-80 times the mass of Jupiter, JuMBO objects are estimated to be roughly half its mass.
