Abstract

AbstractThe recent data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) during late 2025 and early2026 has led to a restructuring of our astrophysical paradigms. While the telescope’s initialdeployment in 2022 began a new era in infrared astronomy, current data challenges existingmodels under the standard ΛCDM cosmological model and traditional stellar nucleosynthesistheories. This report synthesizes findings related to: (i) the Morphological Crisis at CosmicDawn, marked by “Platypus” galaxies and “Little Red Dots” (LRDs); (ii) the Chemical Crisisin local dwarf galaxies, where primitive stars appear to forge dust in unexpected quantities;and (iii) the Exoplanetary Crisis, highlighted by pulsar planets with anomalous atmosphericchemistries. Proposed solutions, including Entanglement-Weighted Origin Gravity (EWOG),offer potential paths forward.
