This is because it took more than 12 billion years for the light from this faraway galaxy to reach Earth. Galaxies from so early in the universe were expected to be turbulent and unstable, in line with existing theories about galaxy formation. That surprising discover could, in turn, lead to a new understanding of how galaxies form and what processes could have been happening in the early universe. Scientists now hope to conduct further observations to understand how typical such very young but very similar galaxies might be, elsewhere in the early universe.
