Webb confirms: Big, bright galaxies formed shortly after the Big Bang

The James Webb Space Telescope successfully imaged galaxies from just 250 million years after the Big Bang, revealing details about their formation and light sources.

James Webb space telescope photographs most distant known galaxy

The James Webb space telescope captured the most distant known galaxy, suggesting a different early universe brightness and rapid star formation.

James Webb Just Observed the Universe's Youngest Galaxies Being Born

The James Webb Space Telescope captured images of some of the youngest galaxies ever seen, just 400-600 million years after the Big Bang.

JWST's Puzzling Early Galaxies Don't Break Cosmology--But They Do Bend Astrophysics

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has observed bright galaxies that stretch back to the early universe, which is puzzling because galaxies shouldn't have had enough time to become so massive.
Studies suggest that the unexpected girth of these early galaxies could be attributed to astrophysical explanations like earlier-forming black holes or bursts of star formation, rather than a flaw in our understanding of cosmology.
