James Webb Telescope Uncovers the Turbulent Birth of the First Galaxies
Using JWST data, astronomers analyzed more than 250 galaxies from the universe’s first 1.5 billion years and found most were chaotic, with gas swirling in all directions. Only a few showed early signs of ordered rotation. The findings reveal how intense star formation and gravitational turbulence gave way to stability, transforming the early universe’s cosmic chaos into today’s elegant spiral galaxies.
