We live in a universe filled with light, but astronomers have long wondered howmuch of the light comes from visible stars and galaxies, and how much of it is near-infrared afterglow leftover from the early days of the uni- Now, a team of researchers led by scientists at the Max Planck Institut has developed a way to tease apart these two types of light, writes space.com.
The universe's near-infrared light comes from a com- bination of observable galaxies and stars and also very ancient objects like the first stars ever formed. The sum of this light, which is the light emitted from all objects throughout the universe's history, is called the extra- In addition, "foreground light" is emitted by dust in the solar system, which radiates light in the same wavelength and makes it difficult for scientists to figure out how much light comes from each source.
The trick is to measure the star light in the space between galaxies, where there is no foreground light. pass. The Hubble and The researchers looked at the emission from two blazer galaxies roughly two billion light-years from Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 is breaking up and will

By considering the maximum possible brightness of each blazar, the researchers were able to estimate the dimming of Knowing the amount of dimming makes it possible for scientists to estimate the EBL between the blazar and Earth and thus figure out the amount of starlight.
Through this process, the study concludes that most "excitable elements," such as neu- of the EBL comes not from the earliest stars but from the local galaxies, a group of about 30 galaxies that Long & Short Term Rentals
