“Researchers have known for a long time that lower-mass black holes must have existed in the early universe. James Webb was the first observatory able to detect them so clearly. Astronomer Dale Koczewski of Colby College in Maine said, “We now know that lower-mass black holes must be discovered.” “We believe it can happen anywhere.”

The galaxy CEERS 1019, which hosts this ancient supermassive black hole, is said to have formed quite early in the universe’s history, just 570 million years after the Big Bang.

The active supermassive black hole at the center of CEERS 1019 is unusual not only because of its age and distance, but also because it is nine million times heavier than the Sun.

Typically, most supermassive black holes in the early universe weigh more than 1 billion solar masses, making them brighter and easier to detect.

Astronomers have long suspected that smaller black holes must have formed in the early universe, but these observations are the first time these cosmic objects have been studied in such detail.

“Thanks to James Webb, we not only see black holes and galaxies from great distances, but we are also starting to measure them with precision. “This is a powerful feature of this telescope,” said astronomer Steven Finkelstein of the University of Texas at Austin.

As reported by Ukrinform, the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb space telescope photographed the galaxy NGC 3256 in the Vitrila constellation.
