James Webb: It is just the beginning

The giant telescope shall also try to identify supermassive black holes that sit at the centre of almost every large galaxy

In the superhot cauldron of the early universe, no light could escape the dense and opaque fog of primordial gas. As the cosmic soup of largely subatomic particles began to cool down, the fog of the lightest elements — hydrogen and helium — condensed to form the first stars. Some early photons — from these newly formed stars — travelled relatively unhindered through the ever-expanding vast and presumably empty open space for over 13 billion years, to reach their final destination: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), some 1.6 million km from Earth.
