First Stars Appeared in a 'Pre-Heated' Universe, Says Surprising Study
Our Universe was 'pre-heated' in its early moments, according to a new study from the International Centre of Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR), challenging assumptions it emerged from an ultracold state.
Astronomers Say: Infant Space Is Warm, Not Cold, Before It Begins to Illuminate
Astronomers utilizing CSIRO’s Murchison Wide Field Array (MWA) telescope are on the quest to uncover the elusive period of reionization. This early stage in the universe’s history has been theorized but remains undetected by radio telescopes. This period marks the end of the universe’s dark ages, occurring approximately a billion years post-Big Bang, during which [...] The post Astronomers Say: Infant Space Is Warm, Not Cold, Before It Begins to…
Astronomers looking for evidence of the light of the first stars and galaxies discovered that the universe was hot, rather than cold, before it turned on." A team led by the University of Curtin of the International Center of Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) was looking for the elusive "Epoch of Reionization", using the Array Widefield Murchison telescope [...]
Astronomers searching for the very first light in the universe have discovered something unexpected: the gas between galaxies had already heated up about 800 million years after the Big Bang. This happened even before the light from the first stars could propagate through the universe, which is surprising. The discovery stemmed from […] Want to know more about science?
