Astronomers believe that the two galaxies formed several hundred million years after the Big Bang.
The Webb Space Telescope has discovered two of the earliest galaxies in the universe. One of them appeared only 350 million years after the birth of the cosmos. This was reported by The Guardian.
It is thought that the first galaxies in the Universe may have appeared as early as 200 million years after the Big Bang. That is, earlier than astronomers thought.
Bright galaxies that existed 350 and 450 million years after the Big Bang are small and compact. They are spherical or disk shaped.
“Perhaps he has already discovered or will find older galaxies. We still have to analyze all the data, but I can say that we still do not know exactly when and how the very first stars and galaxies appeared in the Universe. We only have assumptions. , but the Webb telescope is likely to provide an answer to these questions,” the scientists said.
