A team of researchers has used the James Webb Space Telescope to uncover the most distant active supermassive black hole seen to date, as well as other finds.
NASA said two smaller black holes were easily "shaken out" as well. The first, within galaxy CEERS 2782, and the second in galaxy CEERS 746. Julia Musto is a reporter for Fox News and Fox Business Digital.
"Researchers have long known that there must be lower mass black holes in the early universe. Webb is the first observatory that can capture them so clearly," team member Dale Kocevski, of Colby College, explained in a release. "Now we think that lower mass black holes might be all over the place, waiting to be discovered."
