In the early universe, the first galaxies began to take shape roughly a million years after the Big Bang. Within these young systems, stars formed from vast reservoirs of cold gas, gradually building the structures we see in the cosmos today. Understanding this star-forming gas is key to explaining how galaxies grew, but directly tracing its neutral component has remained challenging, especially at great distances.
