Largest 3D Map of Early Universe

By Norman Metanza

Scientists have unveiled the largest and most detailed 3D map of a glowing signal from the early universe, charting hidden galaxies and gas from 9-11 billion years ago. This groundbreaking achievement, made possible by analyzing faint "Lyman-alpha" light through line intensity mapping, offers an unprecedented look at vast cosmic structures beyond just the brightest galaxies.
