Wow! JWST Found Objects at Insane New Distances (Redshift of 25?!)
JWST Reaches Cosmic Limits: Redshift 25 Objects Force Galaxy Formation Rethink
JWST observations reveal objects existing just 100 million years after the Big Bang, forcing astrophysicists to fundamentally rethink early galaxy and black hole formation models.
Short Summary
- Identify nine new extreme candidates, with three potentially existing at redshift 25 (only 100 million years post-Big Bang).
- New data shows early galaxies are significantly less dense than theoretical models predicted across high redshift scales.
- The extreme nature of these findings supports a radical alternative hypothesis: these highly luminous, compact objects might be primordial black holes (PBHs) rather than nascent stellar populations.
This discussion, led by Anton, charts the progress from Hubble-era understanding (highest confirmed z~9) to current JWST breakthroughs (z~17 to z~25). Understanding these results means re-evaluating the efficiency of structure formation in the universe’s first 300 million years and weighing the evidence for the first black holes forming instantly versus gradually.

I remember like 25 years ago when JWST was presented for the first time and I was blown away. The wait was totally worth it.

JWST is simply amazing - just amazing - rewriting everything we thought we knew about the cosmos we are a tiny speck of
Hi Anton, just wanted to drop a huge thank you - you singlehanded pulled me out of a depression. Your videos where the only thing that i had motivation to look up and watch. You can not imagine how much it helped to feel motivation. Thank you very much! Great work, great content!
You got a shout out at the Rose Center when I was there for a presentation a couple of months ago. Your work is appreciated by scientists and lay people alike.
Thank you, Anton, for the great content and for being a wonderful person.
I do appreciate your cautious and open minded approach in interpreting data. No hype, no clickbait.
You keep us so well informed, educated and entertained. Thank you for everything you do!
Anton, long time watcher here. Love the videos! Thank you for all the time and effort put into these!
It's hard to imagine everything those photons have gone through to end their existence on the JWST sensors! And if we could ask them they would answer "what do you mean?! I just born!"
