JADES-GS-Z13-1-LA is the earliest light we've seen (so far) piercing that cosmic fog.

A dense haze of gas suffused the space between stars, and even between galaxies, muffling the whole universe in darkness.

It's among the pioneers of reionization and one of the oldest galaxies we can see.

The light from JADES-GS-Z13-1-LA looked bluer than they expected.

The galaxy is also giving off a surprising amount of a type of light called Lyman- radiation.

It's inconsistent with expectations from typical galaxies we see at the end of reionization.

If we're seeing the light from a voraciously feeding supermassive black hole, it would have to be even more massive.
