James Webb Has Just Discovered A Star That Could Break The Laws Of Physics. The James Webb Space Telescope has caught a glimpse of the most distant star known in the universe, which had been announced by scientists using Webb's predecessor the Hubble Space Telescope only a few months ago.
The star is named Earendel. Fans of Lord of the Rings might recognize the name. A Tolkien character of a half-elf who rose to the skies to become a star. And we named an actual star after the character. Poignant.
