Recent James Webb Space Telescope spectroscopic surveys reveal an abundance of rapidly assembled early galaxies in the first billion years. Cosmological simulations struggle to reproduce this population because models require a rapid, highly efficient conversion of baryons into stars followed by an abrupt cessation of...

We report a long-lived nuclear transient in GNz7q, a red quasar at $z=7.19$ powered by a $\sim3\times10^{7}\,M_\odot$ black hole and hosted by a compact, dusty starburst galaxy. The transient was identified in more than two decades of imaging with HST, Spitzer, and JWST. After a rapid rise, the source faded smoothly by...

The discovery of a population of massive, ancient quiescent galaxies within the first 2 Gyr of the Universe’s history has led to significant tensions with models of galaxy formation. However, these analyses are often based on slit spectroscopy, which typically captures only the centermost region of these galaxies and,...
