We Still Can't Find the First Stars in the Universe | SciShow News

The video explores the search for Population III stars, which are believed to have existed shortly after the Big Bang. Despite extensive searches using telescopes like Hubble and Spitzer, these stars remain elusive, but their absence provides insights into the early universe. The video also discusses a mysterious X-ray source observed in the Magellanic clouds, identified as an ultra-luminous X-ray pulsar (ULXP). This discovery adds to the mystery of ULXPs, as astronomers seek to understand what makes them so bright and their role in the universe.
