The James Webb Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory have captured the clearest image yet of a galaxy cluster in the making, seen when the universe was only one billion years old.
The telescope primarily detects light in the infrared in order to observe sources such as the first galaxies and protostars.

JWST and ESA’s Ariel mission plan coordinated exoplanet observations starting in 2030, combining high-resolution targeting and large-scale surveys to expand atmospheric data collection.
"There is a growing chasm between theory and observation related to the early universe, which presents compelling questions ...
Recent observations suggest that 'runaway' black holes are tumbling through the cosmos. Building on decades of theory, the discovery adds a remarkable new chapter to the story of the universe.
A team of researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope has produced the most detailed map of dark matter to date.
