James Webb Telescope Detects Ancient Supermassive Black Hole-Powered Quasars, Posing New Mysteries

Observations made by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope reveal these supermassive black hole-powered quasars in the early universe. The findings pose a mystery about how such luminous objects could form in sparse regions of space, isolated in voids, without nearby matter to fuel their growth.
