Summary

Story summary

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) identified a patch of sky with over 30 galaxies whose jets appear aligned toward Earth.
Experts say the galaxies may have formed along the same cosmic filament, but that does not fully explain the alignment.
NASA plans multi-wavelength observations to determine whether the jets are genuinely aligned or affected by measurement bias.
If confirmed, the alignment could challenge current understanding of galaxy formation.
