If our 13.8 billion-year-old cosmos could be considered middle-aged, researchers note these new images captured around its ...

The new images, to be presented at an upcoming meeting of the American Physical Society, date back to when the universe was ...

New insights from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope offer unprecedented images of the universe at 380,000 years old, revealing ...

The age of these very early galaxies is inferred by their "red shift", which is measured using a technique known as photometry. As the Universe expands, light from distant objects shifts towards ...

Unexpected, Bright Hydrogen Emission Caught Astronomers by Surprise In the early universe, space was filled with a dense fog ...

Deep observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have revealed an exceptionally large galaxy in the early ...

The resulting spectrum confirmed the redshift to be 13.0. This equates to a galaxy seen just 330 million years after the Big Bang, a small fraction of the universe's present age of 13.8 billion years.

So far, what we think we know about the universe is checking out. And not only that — the researchers say the new images have helped them measure more precisely the age of the universe (13.8 ...
