These objects, called Object 1 and Object 2, have spectral properties typical of young stars but are located in isolated parts of space, raising questions about their origin.
Initial studies with the Akari satellite revealed a strong ice absorption line in the spectrum, but the resolution of the instrument did not allow improving important parameters.
More recent observations via the ALMA radio telescopes in Chile also did not provide clear answers. The objects have compact sizes (up to 10 times the size of the Solar System) and an unusual chemical composition with a high silicon oxide content that may be associated with cosmic explosions.
Scientists suggest that these objects may be a new type of star. They applied to use the James Webb Telescope, which could provide more data on the composition and nature of objects for further study.
