Discovering the 'fossil' of the Big Bang explosion lurking in space

In the deep, remote universe, scientists believe that fossil remains from the early age are still hidden in the cloud of gas.

The first stars in the universe have long since disappeared, but their traces can still lurk in space, buried in gas clouds like space "fossils".

Scientists are expecting to find "fossil" related to the Big Bang in space.
Researchers at Swinburne University in Melbourne, Australia used the WM Keck Observatory, which has two of the world's most powerful telescopes, to make an archaeological excavation in space.

Scientists have discovered a "primitive gas cloud" in the universe.

Scientists have discovered a "primitive gas cloud" in the universe. That could be a "fossil relic " of.

In the life of a star, it can explode, become. This big explosion often fired many different metallic elements.

For more than 13.7 billion years, many stars exploded. In general, when scientists study space, they often see gas clouds.

Studying gas clouds allows scientists to gain insight into some of the earliest events in the universe.

Professor Michael Murphy, one of the study's key researchers, said: "Our inspiration is actually finding the" fossil "of the first stars in".

Gas clouds are the "fossils" of the first stars that will be "almost pristine" . So there are still traces of heavy metal elements inside them.

Before this latest discovery, only two similar gas clouds were discovered - and those discoveries were mostly accidental.

In 2016, a team of researchers discovered a "nearly primitive" gas cloud using data from the huge Telescope in Chile.
