"James Webb Telescope Uncovers Oldest and Most Distant Active Black Hole in Early Universe"

The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the most distant actively-feeding supermassive black hole ever observed. This black hole, known as CEERS 1019, is one of the least massive seen in the early universe, measuring about 9 million suns. The discovery challenges current understanding of how supermassive black holes grow. The telescope also spotted two other black holes and 11 galaxies from the early universe. The findings provide valuable insights into the early universe and the growth of galaxies.

"James Webb Telescope Discovers Farthest Active Supermassive Black Hole"

The James Webb Space Telescope has identified the most distant active supermassive black hole ever discovered as part of the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey. This black hole, located in a galaxy named CEERS 1019, dates back to just 570 million years after the big bang. The survey also identified 11 extremely old galaxies, shedding light on the formation and growth of galaxies throughout the history of the universe. The discovery of these objects could change our understanding of star formation and galaxy evolution.
