Astronomers have spotted a tiny galaxy from the universe’s first 800 million years that’s somehow churning out new stars over a hundred times faster than the Milky Way.
The galaxy, nicknamed Y1, sits deep in the southern sky and its dust is unexpectedly warm, a sign that star formation there is in full overdrive.
A reminder that the early universe wasn’t quiet at all; it was building stars at a breakneck pace.
