Observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) show that the most vigorous bursts of star birth in the cosmos took place much earlier than previously thought.

The research is the most recent example of the discoveries coming from the new international ALMA observatory, which celebrates its inauguration today.
