James Webb Space Telescope images shatter understanding of age of the universe

The James Webb Space Telescope found six massive galaxies that some scientists never thought could exist. The telescope is so powerful it might have just shattered scientific understanding of the universe. Theoretical Physicist and best selling author Dr. Michio Kaku talked to Gadi Schwartz about the groundbreaking report.

    I feel incredibly lucky to be alive to witness the photos we’ve seen from JWT, I’ve almost teared up at a few from sheer awe. We live in an incredible universe, I don’t even know what else to say at this point. The James Webb Telescope is worth 1,000,000,000x (even much, much more)what it cost to build and I can’t wait to see what else it reveals. Many deep thanks to the team of people that conceptualized and built this telescope from start to finish, it’s a precious gift to humanity.

Because we are the only beings "aware" of our own selves and the universe that made us and yet, we can't live forever to traverse the massive universe - to see all of it's mysteries and exist to see it's infinite expansion to where entropy becomes 0.

    Has anyone considered the possibility that perhaps with the big bang happening and it being early that the galaxies simply formed faster back then? Our understanding of the universe kinda comes from how things work now, but things may have worked quite differently in the early universe. Of course I think there's some important context missing here too. Our observable universe in 13.7 billion years old, but we have no real way of knowing if we see the actual origin point, or just the oldest/farthest point backwards we can see. The universe could be 20 billion years old or more in totality and we just can't see the stuff passed 13.7 because light can't travel fast enough from those places to reach us ever expansion has just spread things too far for that now.

    Like the guy said above the 13.8 billion number is not based on how far back we can see. Though there is a limit to how far back we can see and that's called "Recombination" which is approximately 370,000 years after the big bang. Before then, like you stated, the universe worked differently and was too dense and hot to form matter for light to reflect off of so matter was sort of "transparent" to light and its impossible to observe light earlier than that point in time

    I may add, the laws of physics have never changed and even if they did at some point it was either at the moment of or “before” the big bang if that’s even possible. We can use the laws of physics to very accurately measure the age of the universe several different ways, and I’ve heard the big bang referred to as the point in time where our current understanding of physics break down i.e. our calculations and formulas give conflicting answers where they didn’t before.

    The universe cannot be infinite because the laws of thermodynamics don't allow for that. Even alternative models to the Big Bang theory like the string theory, multiverse, pre-Big Bang cosmologies, inflationary scenarios, semiclassical models, closed time-like curves, ekpyrotic cyclic models, oscillating theories and loop quantum gravity models are all proven to require a beginning of space-time (BGV-theorem). An infinite universe would also contradict logic itself (as shown by mathematicians like David Hilbert), and without logic we couldn't do science in the first place.

Tyson has been approaching these new discoveries in his own way, like refusing to believe the Big Bang may have not happened. Until we know more about what’s being discovered today we can’t truly cement what we’ve previously come to understand about the early stages of the universe. A quote from Tyson which seems ironic to me now is “One must be content with the questions themselves.”
