- Observed differences between ancient and modern galaxies
Hubble deep field allowed us to study galaxy evolution from 500 million years onward. Based on my (limited) understanding, I would expect ancient galaxies to contain fewer heavy elements and to have a more "juvenile" appearance, as compared to modern galaxies. Have we actually observed these things? What other differences have we noticed between ancient and modern galaxies?
