While around two-thirds of galaxies spin clockwise, the other third rotates counter-clockwise.</p><p>In a random universe, scientists would expect to find 50% of galaxies rotating one way, while the other 50% rotate the other way. This new research suggests there is a preferred direction for galactic rotation.</p><p>The observations of 263 galaxies that revealed this strangely coordinated cosmic dance was collected as part of the James Webb Space Telescope Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey, or 'JADES.'</p><p>'It is still not clear what causes this to happen, but there are two primary possible explanations,' team leader Lior Shamir, associate professor of computer science at the Carl R. Ice College of Engineering, said in a statement. 'One explanation is that the universe was born rotating. That explanation agrees with theories such as black hole cosmology, which postulates that the entire universe is the interior of a black hole.</p><p>'But if the universe was indeed born rotating, it means that the existing theories about the cosmos are incomplete.'"</p><p><a href="https://www.livescience.com/space/black-holes/is-our-universe-trapped-inside-a-black-hole-this-james-webb-space-telescope-discovery-might-blow-your-mind" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">livescience.com/space/black-ho</span><span class="invisible">les/is-our-universe-trapped-inside-a-black-hole-this-james-webb-space-telescope-discovery-might-blow-your-mind</span></a></p>
