The JWST Discovered Another Perplexing Early Galaxy

The JWST has made a name for itself by discovering mature galaxies in the Universe’s early times. This time, a pair of Indian astronomers working with the JWST found a fully-formed spiral galaxy much like the Milky Way only 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang. The discovery, and others like it, are forcing scientists to reconsider their understanding of the cosmic timeline.
