Overview

• Researchers from the University of Copenhagen used JWST to witness the birth of three early galaxies.
• These galaxies formed 400-600 million years after the Big Bang, during the Epoch of Reionization.
• The observations provide the first direct images of galaxy formation, previously only theorized or simulated.
• Large amounts of hydrogen gas, essential for star formation, were detected in these early galaxies.
• The findings offer new insights into the history and evolution of the universe.
