Astronomy: the JWST photos of distant galaxies has people telling us these galaxies are from 200 million years after the Big Bang.

How do we measure the age of the light/galaxies? We can’t be using triangulation. I’m assuming red shift, but I’d like to know more about how this is figured out, and what is the margin of error in the calculation.
