Astronomers Detect Oxygen in Most Distant Known Galaxy, Redefining Early Universe Evolution
- Astronomers have discovered oxygen in JADES-GS-z14-0, the most distant known galaxy, suggesting that early galaxies formed more rapidly than previously thought.
- The galaxy's light took 13.4 billion years to reach Earth, allowing scientists to observe it when the universe was under 300 million years old.
- Studies show that JADES-GS-z14-0 has about 10 times more heavy elements than expected, indicating rapid chemical enrichment during its early formation.
