Article Synopsis
  • Recent observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have found many massive-galaxy candidates in the early Universe, stretching further back in time and at lower brightness levels than previously seen.
  • These findings initially posed challenges to the Λ cold dark-matter model, but the new study's results show no significant conflicts when accounting for spectroscopic redshifts.
  • The research highlights three ultra-massive galaxies that convert a notably high percentage of baryons into stars, suggesting they play a significant role in cosmic star-formation rates at redshifts 5 to 6.
