Researchers detect cold gas pipelines feeding early, massive galaxies – Science Codex
To come into being, galaxies need a steady diet of cold gases to undergo gravitational collapse. The larger the galaxy, the more cold gas it needs to coalesce and to grow.
Massive galaxies found in the early universe needed a lot of cold gas–a store totaling as much as 100 billion times the mass of our sun.
