It’s 7 billion years ago, and the Universe’s heyday of star formation is beginning to slow. What might our Milky Way Galaxy have looked like at that time? Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have found clues in the form of a cosmic question mark, the result of a rare alignment across light-years
