Dr. Vithal Tilvi. Dr. Vithal Tilvi an Indian, born in Goa and attended Goa University. He is currently at the Texas A&M University.He, along with a team of astrologers, has discovered the most distant galaxy in the universe ever found which is said to be 13 billion light years away from the Earth.
Because of its extremely large distance of 13 billion light years, this galaxy is seen as it was 13 billion years ago or when it was only 700 million years old. The current age of the universe is about 13.7 billion years.
The scientists discovered that this galaxy is forming stars tremendously, roughly about 300 Sun-like stars every year, compared to only about one Sun-like star produced in our own Milkyway galaxy. It is possible that when the Universe was young, galaxies were more active then they are now.
The results of the latest findings of Dr Vithal and others have been published in the most prestigious international journal ‘the Nature’.
