SUMMARY
The discussion confirms that early galaxies, as observed in the Hubble deep field at distances of 12 to 13 billion light years, were indeed much closer together than contemporary galaxies due to the universe's expansion. The analysis utilizes 2df quasar data, indicating that quasar density remains stable over time, with peak density occurring 2-3 billion years post-Big Bang. This finding challenges the steady state theory and is supported by evidence from cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation and primordial elemental abundance.
