James Webb Space Telescope May Have Detected Supernova from Early Universe

Astronomers utilizing the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have identified a supernova that exploded approximately 11.7 billion years ago, when the universe was only about 2 billion years old. This potential discovery, named SN 2023aeaf, was made during the Cosmos-Web survey and observed at a redshift of 3.195, offering insights into how massive stars died in the young, metal-poor conditions of the early universe.
