minus-squareA_A@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 days agoObservations are fundamental to knowledge. Yet, not being a physicist, i allow myself to laugh at some of the Big Bang s’ quirks. Analysis of light from the galaxy, called COSMOS-74706, places it on the cosmic timeline at about (…) 11.5 billion years ago, or just 2 billion years after the (theorized 😋) “birth of the universe”.
minus-squareA_A@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 days agoEven worse : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MoM-z14 … metallicity of the galaxy to a level not presently accounted for in current models of early galaxy formation. i will pretentiously say it again : “current models” huh, lol.
