Tiny, compact galaxies are masters of disguise in the distant universe − searching for the secrets behind the Little Red Dots

Astronomers exploring the faraway universe with the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA’s most powerful telescope, have found a class of galaxies that challenges even the most skillful creatures in mimicry – like the mimic octopus. This creature can impersonate other marine animals to avoid predators. Need to be a flatfish?…
