• Why do scientists study distant galaxies to learn
  about early galaxies?
• Distant galaxies are just beginning to form, so
  they are very similar to early galaxies.
• Distant galaxies share many characteristics with
  early galaxies.
• Distant galaxies have not changed as much as

  galaxies.
• Because it takes a long time for light to travel
  through space, looking at distant galaxies shows
  what early galaxies looked like.
