Caution: early galaxy cluster under construction

Jan. 10, 2012

An astronomy team led by the University of Colorado Boulder using NASA鈥檚 Hubble Space Telescope has zeroed in on a wild intergalactic construction project -- a cluster of early galaxies just starting to assemble only 600 million years after the Big Bang.

CU-led study pinpoints farthest developing galaxy cluster ever found

Jan. 10, 2012

A team of researchers led by the University of Colorado Boulder has used NASA鈥檚 Hubble Space Telescope to uncover a cluster of galaxies in the initial stages of construction -- the most distant such grouping ever observed in the early universe. In a random sky survey made in near-infrared light, Hubble spied five small galaxies clustered together 13.1 billion light-years away. They are among the brightest galaxies at that epoch and very young, living just 600 million years after the universe鈥檚 birth in the Big Bang. One light-year is about 6 trillion miles.
