And, now that the paper has been peer reviewed and accepted, if you want more insight into the discovery and promise of these galaxies, my video is still a pretty fun way to hear about them! JADES-GS-z14-0, especially, is profoundly exciting. youtube.com/watch?v=YXRJH4…

I was so honored to help STScI artists and scientists in the creation of this beautiful animation simulating a cosmic trip out to JADES-GS-z14-0. These are actual images of each galaxy combined with our estimated distances. It's a really magical journey!

Stefano has been an incredible, supportive collaborator. It was so exciting when he first sent around the preliminary reduced spectrum confirming the distance to JADES-GS-z14-0, one of my favorite scientific moments of the year.

We confirmed the tiny green blob below to be a galaxy so distant it is seen when the Universe was only 2% of its current age, and… its spectrum came out as a huge surprise! 📈🔭 Read more in the excellent summary by Kevin Hainline who first discovered this galaxy 👇

What's fun about being an astronomer is discovering how many times you say something is "impossible" and discover that it's apparently *very* possible.
