Resumo

Recent astronomical discoveries of supermassive black holes (quasars), gamma-bursters, super-novae, and dust at high redshifts, z = (5−10), are reviewed. Such a dense population of the early universe is at odds with the conventional mechanisms of its possible origin. Similar data from the contemporary universe, which are also in conflict with natural expectations, are considered too. Two possible mechanisms are suggested, at least one of which can potentially solve all these problems. As a by-product of the last model, an abundant cosmological antimatter may be created.
