How Super-Quasars Shaped Early Galaxies and Confounded the JWST

This artist's illustration shows a massive galaxy with an active quasar in its center. Quasars are known for their astrophysical jets, but they also have outflows that are more like stellar winds. New research shows that quasars in the ancient Universe were more powerful than modern ones, and they can explain some of the JWST's puzzling observations. Image Credit: NASA, ESA and J.

Extremely powerful quasars in the early Universe drove star-forming gas out of their galaxies. These Super-quasars are behind the JWST's puzzling early Universe observations.
