New JWST data confirms, worsens the Hubble tension

Two major methods each give low-error, but incompatible, answers. <img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/0*uzjgV2gkgy_bdBSr" style="height:394px; width:700px" /> Taking us beyond the limits of any prior observatory, including all of the ground-based telescopes on Earth as well as Hubble, NASA’s JWST has shown us the most distant galaxies in the Universe ever discovered. If we assign 3D positions to the galaxies that have been sufficiently observed-and-measured, we can construct a visualized fly-through of the Universe, as the CEERS data from JWST enables us to do here. Measuring the expansion rate is a challenge, as different methods yield different, mutually incompatible results. (<a href="https://webbtelescope.org/contents/media/videos/2023/126/01H4NSM0PHW800KW15FCQ1TBZV?news=true" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Credits</a>: Frank Summers (STScI), Greg Bacon (STScI), Joseph DePasquale (STScI), Leah Hustak (STScI), Joseph Olmsted (STScI), Alyssa Pagan (STScI); Science by: Steve Finkelstein (UT Austin), Rebecca Larson (RIT), Micaela Bagley (UT Austin)) <a href="https://medium.com/starts-with-a-bang/new-jwst-data-confirms-worsens-the-hubble-tension-1925b179460c">Click Here</a>
