Astronomers used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to reveal 44 stars in a galaxy so far away, its light dates to when the universe was half its age.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured a unique image that revealed 44 individual stars in a galaxy 6.5 billion light ...

Taking advantage of a cosmic 'double lens,' astronomers resolved more than 40 individual stars in a galaxy so far away its light dates back to when the universe was only half its present age.

Astronomers used JWST and gravitational lensing to spot 44 individual stars in a galaxy 6.5 billion light-years away.

A phenomenon called gravitational lensing turned a galaxy into a "hall of mirrors of cosmic proportions," allowing for the discovery.

The Hubble Space Telescope is nearing its 35th anniversary and skywatchers can celebrate the mighty telescope with a ...
