Galactic Revelations
Aug 04, 2022
A team of researchers including Texas A&M astronomer Casey Papovich has identified a galaxy in recent images from the James Webb Space Telescope that they estimate is being observed as it was just 290 million years after the Big Bang, making it one of the earliest galaxies ever observed and a strong indication that galaxies started forming much earlier than many astronomers previously thought.

Powerful Investments
Aug 02, 2022
The Giant Magellan Telescope has secured a $205 million investment from its international consortium to accelerate its construction in Chile as the most powerful telescope ever engineered that will allow astronomers to see farther into space with more detail than any other previous optical telescope before and work in direct synergy with James Webb Space Telescope to empower new scientific discoveries.
