A ten-billion-dollar telescope stared at the early universe and found galaxies too massive to exist, structures larger than physics allows, and a ring of galaxies one point three billion light years wide with no explanation. What James Webb discovered doesn't just challenge our model of the cosmos — it may force us to rewrite the rules of physics entirely. We trace the cosmic web back to its infancy, follow the deaths of the first stars, and confront a structure ten billion light years long that should be impossible. Prepare yourselves.
