"James Webb Telescope Uncovers Ancient Dust-Covered Galaxy and Mysterious Ghostly Object"
TL;DR
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have observed a distant galaxy, AzTECC71, shrouded in dust, making it invisible to optical instruments like the Hubble Space Telescope. This galaxy, which formed just 900 million years after the Big Bang, is a star factory, producing hundreds of new stars each year. The discovery suggests that there may be a whole population of similar dusty galaxies that have been previously hidden from observation.
