James Webb Telescope Captures Universe's Earliest and Most Distant Galaxy

Researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope have captured the formation of three of the universe's earliest galaxies, dating back 13.3 to 13.4 billion years. This groundbreaking observation, part of the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey, provides the first direct images of galaxy formation, revealing dense, cold hydrogen gas in the early universe. The study, led by the Niels Bohr Institute, marks a significant step in understanding the origins of the universe and has been published in the journal Science.
