In a groundbreaking initiative, NASA has released a video that takes viewers on an unprecedented journey through the universe and allows them to witness. birth of the first observed galaxy. Created using data from the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes, this extraordinary visualization offers a unique glimpse into the universe’s distant past.
As part of NASA’s Early Release Science of Cosmic Evolution (CEERS) research, the video offers a stunning visual tour of more than 5,000 galaxies. It ends with a fascinating view of the galaxy that emerged 390 million years after the Big Bang. oldest galaxy documented by humanity.
In a surprising discovery in 2022, researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope detected light emanating from a galaxy so far away that it was hitherto invisible. It was affectionately named Maisie’s Galaxy after the daughter of project leader Steve Finkelstein. formed 390 million years after the birth of the universe, about 13.4 billion years ago.
The James Webb Space Telescope’s unique infrared capabilities have provided this important advance by overcoming the limitations of its predecessor, Hubble. Check out the video below!
LY Aaron Yung, a postdoctoral fellow at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and a member of the expedition team, expressed the profound impact of the discoveries: “With the James Webb Space Telescope, we are entering uncharted regions of the universe. These early galaxies redefine our understanding of galactic formation and provides valuable information about the history of our universe.“
Rebecca Larson, researcher at the Rochester Institute of Technology involved in the research, stressed the importance of success, saying, “Previously, galaxies like Maisie’s were out of reach, shrouded in cosmic mystery, but we also discovered their composition and compared them to neighboring galaxies.”
The immersive video takes viewers through the Extended Groth Strip, an area filled with nearly 100,000 galaxies. tenth, about 5,000 galaxies vividly visualizedtakes viewers on a fascinating journey through time to Maisie’s Galaxy.
