Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have discovered a highly chemically complex galaxy, JADES-GS-z14-0, which formed when the universe was just 300 million years old.
The properties of this early galaxy challenge our understanding of how galaxies formed after the Big Bang.
The amount of oxygen found in JADES-GS-z14-0 suggests that stars may have started forming earlier than previously thought.
The discovery highlights the potential of JWST in reshaping our knowledge of the cosmos and understanding the early history of the universe.
