Since the James Webb Space Telescope launched, we've been seeing images unlike anything witnessed before.

These snapshots of space are so clear showing the places so distant that they reveal the beginnings of galaxies.

Through this tool, we can see the past and the hope is that one day we can observe the beginnings of our own universe.

What that might look like could unlock mysteries and answer questions that we haven't yet imagined.

But there's been another startling discovery which the general public has not been made aware of yet.

We found something in space which scared the living hell out of me.

And the worst part is, now that I've seen it, there's no going bad.

The images coming in from space were beautiful, and I was one of the first to have the opportunity to examine them.

I was going over one image recently under intense magnification when I noticed something peculiar.

It was a section of space which was unusually dark, lacking any light whatsoever, and some calculations showed that it was headed our way at an alarming rate.

The cause of the light obstruction was within the Milky Way, and we had chalked it up to find dust particles which absorbed light.

Those would potentially account for the black blob floating towards Earth from the stars which made no real sense.

But when I examined the image more closely, I realized that I could see something in this new image.

Something which our old Hubble telescope would have been unable to make out.

I can't be. I'm not into myself in my home office, where I was looking at the picture.

It was late at night, and the wind was howling outside as a storm raged on.

It was raining and occasionally claps of thunder were so loud it felt like the house shook with each blast.

The power had flicked off and on once, and I was just waiting for it to happen again.

There's no way it has to be an artifact.

I downloaded a new copy of the image in case something had been corrupted during the file transfer.

With such large images, it was always possible, though extremely unlikely.

When I received a new image, I zoomed in on the section once again.
