AaS! 268: What are Little Red Dots?
About this episode
The episode discusses the findings of the James Webb Space Telescope regarding Little Red Dots and their implications for understanding the early universe.
What do we find when we push the James Webb Space Telescope to its limits? Are Little Red Dots newborn galaxies or old black holes? What are they teaching us about the early universe? I discuss these questions and more in today's Ask a Spaceman!
