What's this?

What would be the most surprising thing the James Webb telescope observes?


I saw this question on Reddit, but couldn't find it again to see what people's responses were. It's quite an interesting question, so what do you all think? What would blow the minds of scientists and all humans if we actually had an observation of something unexpected?

My mind-numbing thought....

Us.... what if the telescope looked so far beyond the known limits of space and returned an image of OUR solar system and EARTH. That somehow space turned back on itself through some kind of unknown phenomenon and here we are, looking back on ourselves. Woah.
