James Webb Space Telescope sees little red dots feeding black holes: ‘This is how you solve a universe-breaking problem’
The James Webb Space Telescope's ancient "little red dot" galaxies have been seen as a sign of "broken cosmology." Feeding supermassive black holes may have come to the rescue.
James Webb Space Telescope discovers one of the earliest ‘truly gargantuan’ supernovas ever seen
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted one of the earliest and most distant supernovas, marking the death of a stellar monster 20 times the mass of the sun.
James Webb telescope uncovers massive ‘grand design’ spiral galaxy in the early universe — and scientists can’t explain how it got so big, so fast
Galaxies in the early universe tend to be clumpy, but the new JWST discovery of a "grand design" spiral galaxy just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang has scientists stumped.
The Sombrero Galaxy’s star-forming days are nearly over — and the James Webb Space Telescope may know why
A brand-new James Webb Space Telescope image captures the steady, slow lifestyle of the distinctive Sombrero Galaxy.
James Webb Space Telescope ‘pushed to its limits’ to see most distant galaxies ever
The James Webb Space Telescope may have broken another of its own records, finding potentially five of the earliest and most distant galaxies ever seen.
James Webb Space Telescope spies ‘inside-out’ star formation in ancient galaxy (image)
The James Webb Space Telescope has observed 'inside-out' star formation in a galaxy just 700 million years after the Big Bang, fleshing out our understanding of the early universe.
