NASA's James Webb Telescope Reveals Universe Expanding Faster Than Thought
The rate of expansion of the universe today is a figure known as the Hubble constant, which is typically measured in units of kilometers per second per megaparsec (km/s/Mpc), where a megaparsec (Mpc) is about 3.26 million light-years.
James Webb space telescope offers best glimpse ever into the icy planetesimals of the early solar system
New studies led by researchers at the University of Central Florida offer for the first time a clearer picture of how the outer solar system formed and evolved based on analyses of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) and centaurs.
Sleeping Monster of the Early Universe Revealed by James Webb
Astronomers have discovered a massive dormant black hole from the early universe, just 800 million years after the Big Bang, using the James Webb Space Telescope. This black hole, with a mass 400 million times that of our Sun,
James Webb telescope spies stunning 'Firefly Sparkle' galaxy — a baby clone of the Milky Way being 'assembled brick by brick' in the early universe
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured an image of a baby, Milky Way-like galaxy that formed more than 13 billion years ago. This "Firefly Sparkle" galaxy could reveal how our own galaxy evolved.
