Could these galaxies have formed earth like planets and potentially life?
- Tepix 4y agoI think it is too early to tell, however there may not have been enough stuff other than Hydrogen and Helium in the early universe to get terrestial planets. Very large stars on the other hand don't live very long (just tens of millions of years) before they go Supernova and produce the elements that are heavier than iron.
- thechao 4y agoHopefully we'll get a drive by: is there a chart showing the relative distribution of elements on, say, a weakly logarithmic scale, overt time? Like: 0 — 98% H, 2% He, 10^6 ..., 10^7 ..., ..., now.
