James Webb Space Telescope finds dwarf galaxies packed enough punch to reshape the entire early universe
The James Webb Space Telescope investigated low-mass galaxies from the early universe, finding most of these dwarf galaxies' light drove a vital phase of cosmic evolution.
James Webb telescope finds ancient galaxy larger than our Milky Way, and it's threatening to upend cosmology
Astronomers believe the first galaxies formed around giant halos of dark matter. But a newly discovered galaxy dating to roughly 13 billion years ago mysteriously appeared long before that process should have occurred.
James Webb Space Telescope tracks a galaxy's history back to just after the Big Bang
Using the James Webb Space Telescope astronomers have zoomed in on a dwarf galaxy in the Milky Way's local group to understand the ebb and flow of star formation since the early universe.
Did monster black holes or galaxies come first? The James Webb Space Telescope may have a surprise answer
Observations of bright galaxies in the early universe could indicate that black holes were driving star formation and galaxy growth just 50 million years after the Big Bang.
James Webb Space Telescope makes rare detection of 2 exoplanets orbiting dead stars
The James Webb Space Telescope has directly imaged two exoplanets orbiting white dwarf stars. These systems offer a glimpse at the future of our solar system after the sun has died.
