New Horizons in Cosmology: The James Webb Telescope's Impact on Understanding the Universe's Expansion
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) offers groundbreaking insights into the universe's expansion, complementing the earlier efforts of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Recent data from JWST suggests a convergence with expansion rates determined through supernovae, yet persistent discrepancies, known as the 'Hubble tension', continue when compared to Cosmic Microwave Background measurements. This article explores how JWST's contributions might lead to a reevaluation of cosmological models and potentially introduce new physics to unravel the complexities of our universe.
