Billions of years ago, when the universe was still young and galaxies were meant to be flourishing, something extinguished the most massive among them — not through collision or slow decay, but through wind. The James Webb Space Telescope has now captured direct evidence of these ferocious galactic outflows, offering humanity its clearest glimpse yet into why some of the cosmos's grandest structures fell silent so early. In answering this old astronomical mystery, the discovery quietly reframes our understanding of how the universe itself came to look the way it does.
