Can we see the very first galaxies in the universe? Maybe. Because the speed of light is finite, the farther away you see, the longer the light takes to get to us. This way, astronomy allows us to see a universe that is younger. James Webb Space Telescope has identified some galaxies that are so far away that their light has taken billions of years to get to us. Please join astrophysicist Salman Hameed in taking a journey to Maisie's Galaxy, the farthest galaxy in the universe. The light from this galaxy started its journey when the the universe was only 390 million years old.
