"There's No Going Back from This" James Webb Telescope Uncovers One of the Oldest Galaxies Ever Seen
"There's No Going Back from This" James Webb Telescope Uncovers One of the Oldest Galaxies Ever Seen. NASA just announced they found one of the most distance structures merging in the universe using the James Webb Space Telescope. The Webb Telescope discovered plenty of far-away galaxies, when it first took its deep field image.
Suddenly, galaxies started to pop out of the darkness of time and space, revealing themselves. The universe, for the first time, began to seem way stranger than we ever thought it to be. Galaxies emerged from what we believed to be the universe’s dark ages, raising doubts over the science of our cosmic model. And it wasn’t just a couple of galaxies. The Webb telescope found hundreds of them.
And now astronomers are staring at a galaxy that could be one of the oldest ever, and the shocking part is that it already contains billions of stars. Interestingly, only two years ago the Hubble Space Telescope spotted this cosmic giant as an unusual point of light in its field of view.
Scientists couldn’t have imagined that this odd speck of light is a monstrous galaxy lurking at the edge of time, until they turned Webb to look at it. Webb’s observation revealed that the point of light is actually a primordial galaxy that is far more massive and mature than it should be.
Dubbed Gz9p3, this galaxy is at a redshift of z=9.3, which means we are seeing it as it was only 510 million years after the Big Bang…
