An international team led by the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has identified three ultra-massive galaxies—nearly as massive as the Milky Way—already in place within the first billion years after the Big Bang.

According to a study published in Nature, an international team headed by the University of Geneva (UNIGE) discovered three ultra-massive galaxies, almost as huge as the Milky Way, during the first billion years following the Big Bang.

The James Webb telescope has spotted three gigantic "red monster" galaxies that were spawned soon after the Big Bang. They're so large they could rewrite the laws of galactic evolution.

A group of international astronomers have discovered three mysterious, ultra-massive galaxies in the early universe. The galaxies – systems of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter – appear in a view from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope like creepy,

In the dark reaches of the early universe, three monstrous galaxies were already lurking — a mere billion years after the Big Bang. These galaxies, nearly as massive as our own Milky Way, were just uncovered by an international team led by the University of Geneva (UNIGE).

An international team that includes the University of Bath has discovered three ultra-massive galaxies (‘Red Monsters’) in the early Universe forming at unexpected speeds, challenging current models of galaxy formation.
