Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Billions of years ago, when the universe was still in its infancy, the formation of stars is believed to have occurred at a much faster rate than it does today. Now, a recent discovery by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope (HST) suggests that the universe’s earliest galaxies may have been pumping out stars even faster than we thought.

The video featured here zooms in on Hubble imagery to reveal the young galaxies that are brimming with starbirth.
