Friday, 13 July 2007 Agençe France-Presse Less dark: According to the Big Bang model, the universe developed from an extremely dense and hot state.

The expansion means that galaxies formed immediately after the big bang are furthest away and therefore most difficult for us to see. Image: Wikipedia
