Wirse than your spelling?

Interesting that you pop up the moment someone mentions micro choppers. Are you a little prick?

Have you got a micro chopper or a big one you can take out in the wind?

A tiny little one.

Using its infrared vision to peer nine billion years back in time, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has uncovered an extraordinary population of tiny, young galaxies that are brimming with star formation.


An extraordinary population of young dwarf galaxies, brimming with star formation, has been uncovered with Hubble.

The galaxies are churning out stars at such a rate that the number of stars in them would double in just ten million years.

For comparison, the Milky Way has taken a thousand times longer to double its stellar population.

These newly discovered dwarf galaxies are around a hundred times smaller than the Milky Way.

Their star formation rates are extremely high, even for the young Universe, when most galaxies were forming stars at higher rates than they are today.

They have turned up in the Hubble images because the radiation from young, hot stars has caused the oxygen in the gas surrounding them to light up like a fluorescent sign.

My consultancy partners sold a license for some software I wrote to my son's university. The royalty payment neatly covering his fees, and a Masters if he goes for that.
