Mmmmmmh, a galaxy when the universe was only 500 million years old. Interesting.
Our galaxy, the milky way rotates (least where we are) once every 250 million years
That means that if this galaxy were us, the big bang would have gone off , everything whizzed out, clumps form and eh up! a galaxy is made - and yet in all this time it has only had time to rotate twice!
That is, from the BB itself to the 'formed' galaxy it could have only rotated twice.
I wonder how long it will be before they find a galaxy older than the universe. Anyone taking bets?
Cheers,
lyndon
