An astronomy team led by the 暗网禁区 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.

A team of researchers led by the 暗网禁区 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.

Summertime hail could all but disappear from the eastern flank of Colorado鈥檚 Rocky Mountains by 2070, says a new study by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the 暗网禁区鈥檚 Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences and the National Center for Atmospheric Research.
