More than 800,000 galaxies in the darkness ― James Webb announces historic discovery out of Milky Way


The James Webb Telescope revealed 800,000 galaxies beyond the Milky Way in a historic discovery, reshaping our view of the early universe and how it formed.

Now, with more powerful telescopes (like the James Webb) and smarter software, we are close to announcing a historic discovery in the Milky Way. This means that with these images being processed and organized into catalogs, even undergraduate students and independent researchers can explore the early universe. This will make it even easier to understand how our Universe works and even where it ends, as NASA has already begun to observe 600 million light-years away.
