Is anyone else genuinely scared that the majority of the human race is losing interest in space? Esp in America where science and NASA defunding sentiment continues to proliferate, it has me worried about the future…

Feel free to mention any special/cosmic phenomenon that surpises you the most

JWST has recently found massive well developed galaxies at high redshift (z>13). According to the linked study, these massive galaxies could represent an unexpected foreground contamination of the CMB, which might bring our interpretation of the CMB as a sort of "afterglow" of the big bang into question. It appears to at least suggest that the CMB strength may have been overestimated.

To clarify, I am not an astronomer or astrophysicist although I have studied physics at a graduate level (different subfield entirely however). I found this article and was curious if anyone knowledgeable had commented on it. It seemed strange to me how little attention this appeared to have gotten as it has significant potential to cause a ruckus in cosmology as far as I understand it. I found little commentary aside from a poorly written Newsweek article, so I thought I would try and raise awareness and discussion about this here as I was curious and had some free time on my hands.

If I missed some such discussion or post, let me know because I would like to hear the thoughts of other experts on this study.

Here is a new interesting interview with Fraser Cain. Fraser discusses his upbringing into science, proudest career moments, fine tuning, black holes, as well as his case for no aliens. He also gets into his favorite scifi media outlets. Fraser is a class act and was awesome to hear his insight and experience. Very humble and bright guy.

If you don't know Fraser Cain, he is a Canadian science communicator, best known as the founder and publisher of Universe Today. This is a website dedicated to space and astronomy news. He has a passion for making complex scientific concepts accessible to the public, and his work has helped thousands of people develop a deeper understanding of the universe. He is also the host of the Universe Today Podcast, where he discusses a wide range of topics related to space exploration, astrophysics, and astronomy with experts in the field. I believe he has been in this field since the late 90s.
