NASA Webb Space Telescope's Largest Image Yet Unveils a Shimmering Cosmos

Summary

Monisha Ravisetti writing in CNET, makes the following points:

• The Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science Survey has produced an enormous, full-colour sky mosaic.
• Called Epoch 1, covers a small patch of sky near the handle of the Big Dipper constellation. 
• JWST has found Maisie's galaxy that may have existed only 290 million years after the Big Bang—much earlier than expected.
• Many newly found galaxies have a high redshift which means they are further away from Earth.
