Astronomers capture a distant galaxy 'die' for the first time; share pic
Astronomers have captured for the first time a distant star-forming galaxy about to 'die' because of a massive cold gas ejection. "It's distant enough that its light takes some nine billion years to reach us," the astronomers said. The galaxy is ejecting nearly half of its star-forming gas at a rate equivalent to 10,000 Suns worth of gas a year.
