An analysis of the ongoing collision suggests that the two clusters were distinct until about 300 million years before the epoch captured in the images, he adds.
“Galaxy clusters, therefore, would had to have started forming billions of years earlier in order to build up to the numbers we see today,” Coe said. “At earlier times, the universe was ...
