Two articles that have yet to pass the peer-review phase report some results of observations of primordial galaxies conducted with the James Webb Space Telescope within the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program which has precisely the aim of studying the oldest and faintest galaxies. A team of astronomers used Webb’s NIRCam and NIRSpec instruments to determine the distances of four galaxies we see as they were less than 400 million years after the Big Bang using a spectroscopic analysis of their light.
