"James Webb Telescope Uncovers Enigmatic 'Dark Stars' Fueled by Dark Matter"

The James Webb Space Telescope has identified three objects that could potentially be "dark stars," a type of star powered by dark matter rather than fusion. Dark matter, which makes up about 85% of the universe's matter, would be a crucial ingredient in these stars, which are described as being made mostly of hydrogen and helium with a small percentage of dark matter. These dark stars could achieve a mass at least a million times greater than the sun and a luminosity at least a billion times greater. While more data is needed to confirm their nature, the discovery of dark stars could provide valuable insights into the properties of dark matter particles.
