Brief description Investigating Rosetta Stones of galaxy formation. A rare population of 'living fossil galaxies' has been discovered which resemble our Milky Way as it was 10 billion years ago. By observing them with large telescopes, the project aims to understand the underlying mechanisms by which most stars in the universe formed during its earliest epochs.
