Searching Out Missing Links in Galaxy Evolution
How do galaxies evolve? When did they start forming? Those are questions astronomers and cosmologists are working to answer.

That changes if the galaxy happens to collide with another one, because that spurs new bouts of starbirth. It's been this way since stars and galaxies first began forming, slightly less than a billion years after the Big Bang.
