Galactic ‘hailstorm’ in the early Universe

A group of scientists led by Claudia Cicone (PhD student at Cavendish) and Prof. Roberto Maiolino (Cavendish), have discovered an extremely powerful outflow of gas in a very distant galaxy, at redshift 6.42, close to the epoch of formation of the first galaxies.
