Data from the James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that early galaxies contain a vast, hidden population of small stars, making them up to four times more massive than previously estimated. This exciting discovery suggests that planets orbiting low-mass stars may have been much more common in the ancient universe, opening up new possibilities for the history of cosmic habitability.
