The galaxy, designated REBELS-25, is seen as it was just 700 million years after the Big Bang, at a time when astronomers expect galaxies to have been small and messy.Living up to its name, this ...

JWST finds spiral galaxy about 5 times more massive than Milky Way — scientists call it 'Big Wheel' Record-breaking 'dead' galaxy discovered by JWST lived fast and died young in the early universe ...

Astronomers have discovered the most distant and, thus, earliest strongly rotating galaxy ever seen that is well-organized rather than chaotic and messy, challenging our theories of cosmic evolution.
