Researchers said the signal was emitted from the galaxy when the universe was 4.9 billion years old.
– Astronomers from Canada and India said they have recently captured a radio signal from the most distant galaxy from Earth so far.
For years, astronomers reportedly have been trying to answer the question of how stars are formed in distant galaxies by detecting radio signals from these nearby galaxies. This recent radio signal emanated from a distant star-forming galaxy called SDSSJ0826+5630. Researchers said they were able to use the signal to measure the galaxy’s gas composition.
