"James Webb Space Telescope discovers unique early galaxy GS-NDG-9422 with gas outshining stars."
The James Webb Space Telescope has identified a unique galaxy, GS-NDG-9422, dating back one billion years post-Big Bang. This galaxy is notable for its gas outshining its stars, suggesting it represents a critical phase in galactic evolution between early stars and established galaxies. Researchers believe this finding could enhance understanding of galaxy formation and the early universe's conditions. The study is published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
