Global Science Breakthroughs You Missed This Weekend (August 23–24, 2025)

Global Science Breakthroughs You Missed This Weekend (August 23–24, 2025)

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope identified over 300 unusually bright objects in infrared images that may be among the universe’s earliest galaxies. One of these objects has been spectroscopically confirmed as an early galaxy. Researchers used a dropout technique to identify high-redshift galaxy candidates from the dawn of the universe. If confirmed, these objects could force a rewrite of galaxy formation models by showing massive, bright galaxies formed earlier than current theory predicts. NASA’s Parker Solar Probe flew through the Sun’s outer atmosphere, directly observing magnetic reconnection that snaps and reconnects magnetic field lines, solving a 70-year mystery. The mission
