Researchers have discovered what seem to be massive galaxies dating back to within 600 million years of the Big Bang using data from the James Webb Space Telescope.
While each of them seem to weigh billions of times more than our sun, they are believed to be extremely compact. Julia Musto is a reporter for Fox News and Fox Business Digital.
"While most galaxies in this era are still small and only gradually growing larger over time," lead researcher Ivo Labbe of Australia’s Swinburne University of Technology said in an email to The Associated Press, "there are a few monsters that fast-track to maturity. Why this is the case or how this would work is unknown."
