After a few days after officially starting science operations, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope propelled astronomers into a realm of early galaxies, previously hidden beyond the grasp of all other telescopes until now. With just four days of analysis, researchers found two exceptionally bright galaxies in the GLASS-JWST images. These galaxies existed approximately 450 and 350 million years after the big bang, though future spectroscopic measurements with Webb will help confirm. “While the distances of these early sources still need to be confirmed with spectroscopy, their extreme brightnesses are a real puzzle, challenging our understanding of galaxy formation,” noted Pascal Oesch at the University of Geneva in Switzerland, second author of the Naidu et al. paper. Yet in this episode, this time on the planet Earth, after the Japan Win between the game with Germany, Japan’s fans shows how it is done. They stayed in the stadium and cleaned it, showing respect and obeying their old culture, where cleanliness is a part of the culture and is drilled into its people from early childhood.
