Unraveling the Enigma of Ancient Galaxies: Webb Telescope Sheds Light

Scientists have used computer simulations to explain the existence of massive and mature galaxies during the early stages of the universe, a phenomenon that defied expectations. The simulations showed that star formation in these early galaxies occurred in occasional bursts, rather than at a steady pace, causing them to appear brighter and larger than they actually were. This resolves the mystery without challenging the standard cosmological model. The findings were based on observations made by the James Webb Space Telescope, which has provided valuable insights into the early history of the universe.
