Astronomers theorise that they are early galaxies that existed earlier than 700 million years after the Big Bang.

Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole.

Astronomers first thought these red dots were ancient galaxies. They appeared unusually mature for their early universe age.

During the early scientific observations of the distant universe by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), scientists began to notice a peculiar class of objects. They are very red, extremely compact, ...
