Using 1,024 of what will eventually be 131,072 radio antennas, the first SKA-Low image shows a tiny sliver of sky dotted with ancient galaxies billions of light-years from Earth. This first snapshot ...

This record-breaking detection is making astronomers rethink how quickly galaxies formed in the early Universe. Two different teams of astronomers have detected oxygen in the most distant known ...

"The results show the galaxy has formed very rapidly and is also maturing rapidly, adding to a growing body of evidence that the formation of galaxies happens much faster than was expected." ...

The finding, along with other mounting evidence, has rocked the research community, challenging prior thinking that galaxies this long ago — when the universe was only two percent its age of 13. ...
