NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has detected and "weighed" a galaxy - seen 600 million years after the Big Bang - that is ...

The research group observed a galaxy nearly 6.5 billion light-years from Earth; when the universe was half its current age.

While the extra-galactic stars provided a microlensing effect, large clusters of dark matter provided a macrolensing effect.

Taking advantage of a cosmic 'double lens,' astronomers resolved more than 40 individual stars in a galaxy so far away its light dates back to when the universe was only half its present age.

The cutting-edge observatory is charged with seeing some of the earliest visible light, and the recent image achieves a new ...

The NASA/ESA James Webb Space Telescope has captured a stunning view of the Horse-head Nebula. It is the sharpest infrared ...

Photos from the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed more than 40 stars within the gravitationally lensed "Dragon Arc" ...
