Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has detected a new grand-design spiral ...

But the state-of-the-art space observatory has recently imaged two grand design spiral galaxies, and one appears to be the ...

The James Webb Telescope has spotted a massive spiral galaxy, and its extreme age could challenge current understanding of ...

"In this paper, we present the discovery, in the Abell 2744 cluster field, of a two-armed, grand-design spiral galaxy, with a redshift of z ∼4, when the universe was only ∼1.5 billion years old.

The galaxy, known as NGC 5643, is located roughly 40 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Lupus. NGC 5643 is referred to as a grand design spiral, which describes galaxies with ...

Galaxies in the early universe tend to be clumpy, but the new JWST discovery of a "grand design" spiral galaxy just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang has scientists stumped. When you purchase ...
