The James Webb Space Telescope was designed to hunt for the universe's first galaxies.

Astronomers have used the observatory to find galaxies that were larger and brighter than we expected them to be.

Big black holes in the early universe are even harder to explain than big galaxies.

The real cosmic holy grail is to find the first stars, the first galaxies, and the first black holes.

Paul M. Sutter is a research professor in astrophysics at SUNY Stony Brook University and the Flatiron Institute in New York City .
