Dr. Becky | Every "most distant galaxy known" from 1925-2024 | RECORD BREAKERS @DrBecky | Uploaded 2 months ago | Updated 2 days ago
AD | To try everything Brilliant has to offer for free for a full 30 days, visit brilliant.org/DrBecky and you'll also get 20% off an annual premium subscription. | The current most distant galaxy known is JADES-GS-z14-0, which was found in a JWST image. But there’s a whole long list of galaxies that have come before it from1925 onwards. In this video we’re going through the science history of which galaxies once held the title of "the most distant galaxy known".

👩🏽💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
