NASA’s Webb Telescope Reveals Firefly Sparkle, a Milky Way-Like Galaxy
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured the Firefly Sparkle galaxy, existing 600 million years after the Big Bang. This rare discovery showcases a galaxy similar in mass to the Milky Way during its early years. Unprecedented details were revealed using gravitational lensing and infrared imaging, highlighting 10 distinct star clusters within Fir...

James Webb Telescope Breaks Record with Discovery of Early Galaxies Dating 200 Million Years After Big Bang
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted five galaxy candidates dating back to 200 million years after the Big Bang. These findings could transform our understanding of early cosmic evolution. Discovered via gravitational lensing, these galaxies, if confirmed, predate known formations and offer vital insights into the universe’s infancy. Scient...

James Webb Space Telescope Reveals That Supermassive Black Holes Might Have Been Created Right After Big Bang
The James Webb Space Telescope has detected massive black holes from the early universe, just millions of years post-Big Bang. A new hypothesis suggests they could have formed from primordial “seeds” during the chaotic initial moments of the universe, bypassing the need for stellar collapse. This idea challenges traditional theories and may res...

Here's How James Webb Space Telescope Helps Us Look Back in Time
The James Webb Space Telescope allows astronomers to explore the universe’s history by observing light that has travelled across billions of light-years. This unique capability enables scientists to see how galaxies, stars, and other celestial bodies appeared billions of years ago, offering a glimpse into the early stages of the universe. By stud...

Black Holes Explosions Driven by Hawking Radiation May Unveil New Physics
Primordial black holes, potentially formed shortly after the Big Bang, may be undergoing explosions across the universe, driven by Hawking radiation. Physicists believe that capturing these rare events could reveal undiscovered particles and fundamental physics. Dr. Marco Calzà and Dr. João G. Rosa from the University of Coimbra have proposed way...

Astronomers Identify Black Hole Consuming Matter 40 Times Its Theoretical Limit
Astronomers using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have discovered LID-568, a black hole that is consuming matter at a rate over 40 times the theoretical Eddington limit. This discovery, made in a galaxy formed only 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang, sheds light on how supermassive black holes might have evolved rapidly in the early universe. R...

James Webb Space Telescope Uncovers Inside-Out Galaxy 700 Million Years After Big Bang
The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed a unique “inside-out” galaxy from 700 million years after the Big Bang. Unlike most galaxies, JADES-GS+53.18343−27.79097 has stars forming rapidly at its outskirts rather than at its core, providing the earliest evidence of predicted galaxy growth patterns. Researchers used JWST’s advanced Near-In...

James Webb Space Telescope Finds Distant Galaxy That May Hold Clues to Early Universe
A recent discovery by the James Webb Telescope has uncovered a rare galaxy, offering new perspectives on how stars and galaxies formed in the early universe. Located a billion years after the Big Bang, this galaxy's unusual characteristics suggest it could hold the key to understanding a crucial stage in cosmic development.

NASA Hubble Space Telescope Finds a High Number of Black Holes in the Early Universe
An international team of researchers, led by scientists from Stockholm University's Department of Astronomy, has discovered a higher number of black holes in the early universe than was previously recorded. Using the NASA Hubble Space Telescope, this team found black holes among faint galaxies formed shortly after the Big Bang event.

Star Clusters Formed 460 Million Years After Big Bang Discovered By James Webb Telescope
"This is the first discovery of star clusters in an infant galaxy less than 500 million years after the Big Bang," ESA said in a statement.

Webb Telescope May Have Discovered Most Distant Known Galaxy, Says NASA
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered what appears to be a new record-holder for the most distant known galaxy, a remarkably bright star system that existed just 290 million years after the Big Bang, NASA said Thursday.

Compact Galaxy's Discovery Shows Webb Telescope's "Amazing" Power
The detection of a highly compact galaxy that formed soon after the Big Bang and displayed an impressive rate of star formation is the latest example of how the James Webb Space Telescope is reshaping our understanding of the early universe.

Webb Telescope Discovers Oldest Galaxies Ever Observed
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the four most distant galaxies ever observed, one of which formed just 320 million years after the Big Bang when the universe was still in its infancy, new research said on Tuesday.

Galaxies Spotted by Webb Space Telescope Rewrite Prior Understanding of Universe
Observations by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope are upending the understanding of the early universe, indicating the presence of large and mature but remarkably compact galaxies teeming with stars far sooner than scientists had considered possible. Astronomers said data obtained by the telescope reveals what appear to be six big galaxies as matur...
