Webb reveals a galaxy sparkling with the universe’s oldest star clusters

The Milky Way, our galaxy, has about 150 globular clusters. Their history is not yet well understood by astronomers, and measuring their age can be extremely difficult.

Nasa’s James Webb telescope spots the oldest star clusters ever seen

Nasa’s James Webb Space Telescope has spotted the oldest star clusters ever seen. The findings come from scientific analysis of Webb’s First Deep Field image. “JWST was built to find the first stars and the first galaxies and to help us understand the origins of complexity in the universe, such as the chemical elements and the building blocks of life,” says Lamiya Mowla, Dunlap Fellow at the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy & Astrophysics at the

James Webb Space Telescope spots 'Sparkler Galaxy' that could host universe's 1st stars

The first deep-field image revealed from the James Webb Space Telescope hid a wealth of treasure including a sparkling galaxy that could host the universe's first stars.

James Webb Space Telescope reveals some of the oldest stars in our universe

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has promised to take us back to a time when our universe was in its infancy. And it’s keeping its word. In a new paper published Thursday, a team of Canadian astronomers has found evidence of some of the oldest known stars.

Webb reveals a galaxy sparkling with the universe's oldest star clusters

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers from the CAnadian NIRISS Unbiased Cluster Survey (CANUCS) team have identified the most distant globular clusters ever discovered. These dense groups of millions of stars may be relics that contain the first and oldest stars in the universe.
