OREANDA-NEWS The phantom trail of one of the first stars of the Universe was found on the edge of the Milky Way. Scientists called the wreckage of a celestial body a kind of time machine.

Astronomers from Australian National University have recorded traces of one of the first stars of the universe in 35 thousand light-years from the solar system.

“Our find can be called a kind of time machine. It brings us back to the time of the birth of the first stars in the Universe,” said Thomas Nordlander, a university employee.

According to him, the star was formed as a result of the explosion billions of years ago.
