The most distant similar galaxy discovered by James Webb

If we want to find a good environment for planets like ours, we must look for galaxies similar to ours, the Milky Way. It is not that they cannot exist in others, but we know with certainty that ours contains the recipe for life, at least the one we know. . It has worked,

What would be the galaxy similar to the oldest Milky Way and here we come to what is news now because a team of international scientists led by the CSIC astrobiology center has discovered the barred spiral galaxy, that is, similar to ours, which The furthest one is called ceers-2112. Its redshift places it when the universe was only 2.1 billion years old.

The image above is an artistic interpretation published by the researchers themselves about how this galaxy could be seen. They have described the discovery as surprising and goes against what astronomers expected since they did not think that galaxies similar to ours could exist. . so old, emerging 11.7 billion years ago.

Astronomers have verified that this very, very distant galaxy ceers-2112 was dominated by baryons, that is, by the same normal matter that makes up the Earth and the stars and not by dark matter, although dark matter It is most abundant in the universe.

The discovery was achieved using data from the James Web space telescope and has been published in the scientific journal Nature. It is tempting to think that if a galaxy similar to ours could form so long ago that stars similar to the sun could form in it and that If there were planets similar to Earth orbiting these stars, it is tempting to think that 11.7 billion years ago there were already the necessary elements to create something similar to a civilization.
