"James Webb Telescope Reveals Secrets of Primeval Galaxies"

TL;DR
The James Webb Space Telescope has provided new insights into the exceptionally luminous galaxy GN-z11, which existed when the universe was only about 430 million years old. Researchers using Webb have found evidence of a central, supermassive black hole rapidly accreting matter within GN-z11, making it the most distant active supermassive black hole observed to date. Additionally, indications of ionized chemical elements near the black hole and the discovery of a gaseous clump of helium in the galaxy's halo suggest the potential formation of Population III stars, marking a fundamental shift in cosmic history.
