... Gravitational wave search provides insights into galaxy evolution and mergers . ... galaxies . ... The Hubble Space Telescope found a galaxy that was completely formed within 480 million years of the Big Bang. How could gas and dust clouds condense into stars and organize themselves via gravity into an entire galaxy in less time than it takes the Milky Way to make two rotations? ... Galaxies like the Milky Way indeed could not have formed as a unit at such an early era after the Big Bang. ...

... The crucial problem that limits our knowledge of our own galaxy, and prevents us from working out how and when it formed, is our inability to measure direct distances to distant stars, and to determine their proper motions. If we could get accurate parallaxes and proper motions for every star in the galaxy, we'd have things completely wrapped up, and surely we'd be able to figure out galaxy formation. ... Luckily, this is just what should be achievable using space interferometers. ...
