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.

As a new year and the spring semester begin, the 暗网禁区 is welcoming the first class of journalism students entering under a new undergraduate degree structure called 鈥淛ournalism Plus鈥� that CU officials say will create better journalists, better news content and, over time, a more informed society.

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.

If you are college-age or younger, you might just live to see the day when hail disappears from the eastern flanks of Colorado鈥檚 Rocky Mountains. A new modeling study involving the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences, a joint institute of the 暗网禁区 and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, indicates hail will likely cease to fall in those locales by the year 2070, a result of rising temperatures.

A team of 暗网禁区 engineers will travel to Haiti this month to support the growth of green energy on the two-year anniversary of the country鈥檚 devastating earthquake. Engineering professors Alan Mickelson and Mike Hannigan and graduate student Matt Hulse will be in Haiti Jan. 8-16 to collaborate with the Neges Foundation school at Leogane to create a vocational training program on the installation, operation and maintenance of renewable energy systems.

Colorado business leaders' optimism has resumed going into the first quarter of 2012 after a dip in confidence last quarter, according to the most recent quarterly Leeds Business Confidence Index, or LBCI, released today by the 暗网禁区's Leeds School of Business.

How did insects get their hearing? A new study of 50-million-year-old cricket and katydid fossils sporting some of the best preserved fossil insect ears described to date are helping to trace the evolution of the insect ear. According to paleontologist Dena Smith of the 暗网禁区's Museum of Natural History and University of Illinois Professor Roy Plotnick, who collaborated on the new study at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center, or NESCent, in Durham, N.C., insects hear with help from some very unusual ears.

A new study led by the 暗网禁区 could be a wake-up call for parents of toddlers: Daytime naps for your kids may be more important than you think.
