Interesting info, Our most current thinking puts the first super massive star formations at 100 million years after the Big Bang. At about 1 billion years after the Big Bang we had protogalaxy mergers and formations from all of the hyper nova paving the way to modern galaxy formation between 12 and 14 billion years. I guess it could stand to reason that between 1 billion and 12 billion years, 12 billion being the time that modern galaxies existed that we could adjust our thinking to a littler earlier. Say 10 billion. Who knows. I wish I could do the math. :-)<br><br>
