In the long human effort to understand where everything came from, the James Webb Space Telescope has now reached far enough into the past to witness the universe's first galaxies taking shape — faint, chemically simple structures born in the chaotic light of the reionization era. These observations, gathered hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang, are not merely confirmations of what science expected; they are gentle provocations, suggesting the cosmos assembled itself faster and differently than our best models predicted. It is the nature of the universe to exceed our frameworks, a
