A recent discovery has left scientists scratching their heads.  While looking at images from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, a researcher found something odd. Out of 263 galaxies, two-thirds were spinning clockwise, and only one-third were spinning counterclockwise. This isn't what scientists expected. They thought galaxies would be evenly split between the two directions.

        This finding challenges our understanding of how galaxies form and move. It suggests that our universe might have been born spinning. This idea fits with a theory called "black hole cosmology. " This theory suggests that our entire universe could be inside a black hole. Imagine that! Our universe might be like a Russian doll, with one universe inside another.

        This discovery supports another theory called "Schwarzschild cosmology. " This theory suggests that our galaxy is trapped inside a black hole, which is inside another universe. If this is true, other black holes could be wormholes leading to other universes. These wormholes would trap light, making other universes invisible to us.

        One scientist thinks the simplest explanation is that our universe was born inside a rotating black hole. This could have influenced how galaxies spin, creating the pattern we see. But there's another possibility. Our own Milky Way galaxy might be affecting how we see other galaxies. Since Earth rotates around the Milky Way's center, light from galaxies spinning the opposite way might be brighter. This could explain the unusual pattern.

        If this is true, we might need to re-calibrate our measurements of deep space. This could help solve other mysteries in cosmology, like why the universe seems to be expanding at different rates. It could also explain why some galaxies seem older than the universe itself.

        This discovery raises big questions. Are we really inside a black hole? Could other black holes be doorways to other universes? Only more research will tell. But one thing is clear: our understanding of the universe is far from complete.
