James Webb Space Telescope Discovers Ghostly Galaxy AzTECC71

The discovery supports theories of a dustier early universe and suggests the existence of numerous undetected galaxies.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has detected a distant galaxy, AzTECC71, that was previously undetectable by the Hubble Space Telescope.
The discovery of AzTECC71, which is believed to date back to nearly 1 billion years after the Big Bang, supports theories that massive stellar nurseries could have existed that long ago and may be more common than previously believed.
The early universe could have been far dustier than previously thought, allowing for star-forming galaxies to evolve and grow.
The fact that AzTECC71 is hard to spot suggests that there could be hundreds, if not thousands, of other galaxies out there, hiding in plain sight.
The James Webb Space Telescope's infrared vision allows it to detect some of the oldest, faintest light in the universe, studying a period less than 300 million years after the Big Bang, when many of the first stars and galaxies were born.
