WOW! The James Webb Space Telescope continues to change our view of the cosmos! 🌌 abc15
Webb scientists, including researchers from the University of Arizona, say the images contain galaxies dating back to about 300 million years after the Big Bang. That would make them the most distant galaxies ever discovered.
While the galaxies are some of the oldest ever discovered, they appear to be the newest to us because of how much time it takes for their light to reach Earth. The University of Arizona-based team that built the Near Infrared Camera, or NIRCam, onboard Webb partnered with the European Space Agency's Near Infrared Spectrograph, or NIRSpec, team in 2015 to form the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey, or JADES, collaboration.
