There are claims that these galaxies should not exit in the early universe. And yet here they are, detected by the James Webb Space Telescope. The light from these galaxies started when the universe was only 500-800 million years old. These are not the farthest/earliest galaxies - that record belongs to another galaxy, JADES-GS-z13-0, which pushes us to only 320 million years after the beginning of our universe. Here we also talk about the previous record-holder, GN z-11, which has now been observed by JWST and the new observations provide insights about nature of this very young galaxy. Please join astrophysicist Salman Hameed in exploring these galaxies and on how to think about these cutting-edge results in this episode of Kainaati Gupshup.
