In the light that left the cosmos during its infancy, Canadian astronomers have found something rare and ancient: star clusters that may hold the universe's very first stars, preserved across more than thirteen billion years of cosmic time. Using one of the James Webb Space Telescope's inaugural deep-field images — a sliver of sky no wider than a grain of sand held at arm's length — the researchers identified these relic structures, intact survivors of the universe's violent early churning. It is a discovery that reminds us that to look outward into space is to look backward into time, and tha
