With a construction period of more than 20 years, the participation of thousands of scientists and a cost of ten billion US dollars, the James Webb Space Telescope is already a project of superlatives. Now the unmanned probe, whose destination is 1.5 million kilometers from Earth, has taken its first pictures, which are available exclusively to the Postillon.

As expected, the photos are dark. After all, they were taken in space. Surprisingly from the point of view of astronomers, however, should be that in the peripheral regions of space, on which the telescope was directed, letters are to be seen, which seem to form even correct words.

"We expected a few things like this, but not this," admits NASA spokesman Neil Davis. "We've never seen star formations this bizarre, because that's all this can be. Space is full of wonders! We'll be studying this very closely in the coming weeks."

Also puzzling scientists at the moment is the fact that all the images seem to show the same motif. "No matter which direction the telescope photographs, we always see this mysterious constellation," Davis said. Einstein's theory of relativity probably now needs to be rethought, he said.
