The James Webb Space Telescope has produced its deepest image yet of a single target, Abell S1063, a galaxy cluster 4.5 billion light-years away. The 120-hour exposure reveals warped arcs of light from even more distant galaxies, acting as gravitational lenses. This unprecedented view allows scientists to study the formation of early galaxies during the Cosmic Dawn, challenging existing understandings of the universe's early stages and its galaxy sizes.
