(8 years ago)Astronomers have found what is believed to be one of the oldest stars in the universe, a 13.5 billion-year-old body formed almost entirely by the materials released by the Big Bang. The star's age suggests that the part of the Milky Way, where our sun dwells, could be at least three billion years [...]
The star's age suggests that the part of the Milky Way, where our sun lives, may be at least three billion years older than previously thought, according to researchers at John Hopkins University in Maryland.
The composition of the newly discovered body indicates that it can only be a bomb removed from the Big Bang to the family space plant.
“Star is probably 1 in 10 million,”- said Kevin Schlaufman, the lead author of the study, published in The Astrophysical Journal. This tells us something very important about the early generations of stars. ”
