James Webb Space Telescope spots distant galaxy

The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the LAP1-B galaxy, located 13 billion light years away, which appears to be one of the most primitive galaxies ever observed. The galaxy contains barely any heavy elements, supporting cosmologists' theory that heavier atoms were created in the explosive deaths of early massive stars. This discovery provides insight into how the universe began forging the complex chemical elements that eventually made up everything, including humans.
