When corrected for the wavelength stretch caused by the expansion of space over billions of years, the spectra of these galaxies (shown in red) display features emitted by oxygen, hydrogen, and neon that show a stunning resemblance to those seen from so-called green pea galaxies (in green) found nearby.
Furthermore, it was possible to measure the oxygen content in these cosmic dawn galaxies for the first time thanks to the Webb observations. To clarify these relationships, the spectral lines have been stretched vertically. Credit: SDSS and NASA, ESA, CSA, and STScI
