It will provide crucial data to help understand how galaxies grew and evolved in the early Universe.

Each second the giant galaxy grew larger and larger as the ship rushed rapidly towards it.

The universe, it seems, enjoyed a robust infancy as the most common galaxies grew astonishingly fast into their present shapes.

When observation did not match expectation, this posed problems for theories of how galaxies merge and grow.

"They are the seeds from which stars and galaxies grew."

The stock market's rise, in turn, is built on a strikingly small galaxy of star stocks, though the galaxy has grown a bit lately.

Slight temperature variations in this otherwise uniform radiation are the textures out of which galaxies grew.

This is more evidence, then, that in part the galaxy grew to its present size at the expense of less fortunate neighbors.

In terms of travel time, the galaxy grew smaller every day.

The new observations seem to support a leading theory that galaxies grew by starting out as clumps of stars.
