Pérez-González is the principal investigator of SHARDS, a survey seen through the OSIRIS (Optical System for Imaging and low-Intermediate Resolution Integrated Spectroscopy) instrument of Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC). He and his team recently published their findings in The Astrophysical Journal. Previously, massive disc and spheroidal galaxies were thought to form in just one way. SHARDS and Hubble data that had been beamed back revealed something surprising. “We have been able to d...

  Ancient galaxy clusters have been described as “the dark skeletons of the cosmos.” Astronomers at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) have found the most densely populated galaxy cluster in formation in the primitive universe. The researchers predict that this structure, among the largest astronomical objects in the Universe, which is at a distance of 12.5 billion light years from us, will have evolved becoming a cluster similar to the 1,300 galaxies of the Virgo Cluster, a n...
