DescNASA’s Webb Proves Galaxies Transformed the Early Universe..Image description: More than 20,000 tiny galaxies appear across the black background of space. The galaxy colors vary. Some of the smallest galaxies are shades of orange and pink. Most galaxies are so distant they appear as single points of light. Slightly larger, fuzzier galaxies appear whiter. Some have distinct spiral arms. In front of the galaxies are several foreground stars, though none appear larger than the largest galaxies. The foreground stars are scattered around the image, appear blue and have eight prominent diffraction spikes. At the center is a pink object with six diffraction spikes. This is quasar J0100+2802. It appears slightly smaller than the blue foreground stars...Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, Simon Lilly (ETH Zurich), Daichi Kashino (Nagoya University), Jorryt Matthee (ETH Zurich), Christina Eilers (MIT), Rob Simcoe (MIT), Rongmon Bordoloi (North Carolina State University), Ruari Mackenzie (ETH Zurich).
