Through the James Webb Space Telescope, researchers at IUCAA have glimpsed the Universe's infancy and found not the expected chaos, but order — ancient galaxies, formed within the first billion years after the Big Bang, already obeying the same structural laws that govern galaxies today. The discovery, rooted in a fundamental scaling principle called the Kormendy relation, suggests that the cosmos learned to build itself far sooner than science had imagined. It is a reminder that the Universe's deepest patterns may be older, and more patient, than our theories have allowed.
