The mysteries trapped in the corners of the universe are far more exciting than anyone could ever imagine. With each passing day and month, astronomers find new riddles and solve them in what is as puzzling as they are delightful. Sometimes astronomers find things in a place they least expect them to be. And thats exactly what has happened with a group of astronomers looking for a simple sample of distant galaxies.

Around 10 and 20 percent of early galaxies may still remain hidden behind curtains of cosmic dust.

Thanks to the Atacama Large Milimeter Array in Chile, a team of astronomers discovered two galaxies invisible to the Hubble Space Telescope.
