Astronomy: An early stellar nursery
Philip Solomon1
Abstract
Searching for distant objects in our Universe is equivalent to looking back in time, to the early origins of stars and galaxies. The most distant object known shows the earliest evidence of star formation.
In the astronomical hunt for ever more distant objects, and hence a window on the early Universe, the current leader1 is J1148 + 5251 at a redshift of 6.4.
