NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have discovered the oldest black hole ever. Webb's onboard equipment allows it to look back to the earliest phases of the universe. The newly-found supermassive black hole is 10 million times the mass of the Sun. It resides at the center of a galaxy formed 570 million years since the universe began.
