## Resource

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers identified four pairs of mysterious Little Red Dots that may be rapidly growing black holes in the early universe. Dating back nearly 12.8 billion years, these objects could provide new clues about how galactic collisions helped create supermassive black holes so quickly.
