A dazzling galaxy discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is forcing cosmologists to reexamine key assumptions about the early universe. The object, JADES-GS-z13-1, appears just 330 ...

Images of the cosmos, such as the James Webb Space Telescope’s deep space snapshot, make space look chock-full of stuff. In the grand scheme of things, it is, but all those stars, galaxies, planets, ...

One of the Holy Grails in cosmology is a look back at the earliest epochs of cosmic history. Unfortunately, the universe's first few hundred thousand years are shrouded in an impenetrable fog. So far, ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) We’ve already discussed the crisis in cosmology multiple times on this channel. Recently, that crisis was only made worse thanks to new data from the South Pole Telescope.
