Speck of light spotted by Hubble is one of the most enormous galaxies in the early universe, James Webb telescope reveals
The ancient obect Gz9p3, which appeared as a single point of light through the Hubble Space Telescope, is actually one of the most enormous galaxies in the early universe, James Webb Space Telescope observations reveal.
Space photo of the week: James Webb telescope snaps stunning 'tapestry of star birth' peppered with cavernous galactic voids
Two new James Webb Space Telescope images show off massive bubbles carved out of a stellar nursery by giant, baby stars growing in a nearby galaxy.
James Webb telescope detects oldest 'dead' galaxy in the known universe — and its death could challenge cosmology
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected the oldest "dead" galaxy ever observed, at just 700 million years after the Big Bang. The stalled-out relic defies explanation by our current knowledge of the early cosmos.
James Webb telescope reveals targets for the next year, including monster black holes, exomoons, dark energy — and more
The beloved James Webb Space Telescope will soon begin working on a fascinating to-do list for 2024 and 2025, including research into black holes, alien moons, dark energy and more.
James Webb telescope spots trouble in Orion Nebula: Stellar winds are eroding planet-forming material around a young star
A group of extremely bright stars may be slowly reshaping the Orion Nebula and stopping one of their neighbors from forming planets, new James Webb Space Telescope observations suggest.
James Webb telescope spots potential conditions for life on 2 dwarf planets beyond Neptune
Data collected by the James Webb Space Telescope shows that, like Pluto, the dwarf planets Eris and Makemake could be geologically active, which changes what we know about their chances of harboring life.
James Webb telescope finds ancient galaxy larger than our Milky Way, and it's threatening to upend cosmology
Astronomers believe the first galaxies formed around giant halos of dark matter. But a newly discovered galaxy dating to roughly 13 billion years ago mysteriously appeared long before that process should have occurred.
