Gooooooo, Judy!!!

Great video! My guess is that, whilst the Universe probably is still about 13.7 billion years old, these giant early galaxies found by JWST probably formed much faster than what we currently understand about the rate of galaxy formation. The Universe 500 million years after the big bang was probably very different from the Universe we occupy now, or was, say several billion to 5, 6 billion years ago.
