Unexpected brightness of JADES-GS-z14-0 means telescope could capture images of galaxies even further away
The most distant known galaxy has been captured in a record-breaking image by the James Webb space telescope.
The galaxy, called JADES-GS-z14-0, is revealed as it was just 290m years after the big bang, at the dawn of the universe. The telescope’s previous record holder was a galaxy seen at 325m years after the big bang, which happened nearly 14bn years ago.
