Cosmic Reionization (Annotated)
Artist's impression of a portion in the timeline of the Universe, around the "epoch of reionization" - the process that ionised most of the material in the cosmos. The illustration begins from the release of the Cosmic Microwave Background, or CMB (on the left), the most ancient light in the history of the cosmos, dating back to 380,000 years after the Big Bang, and proceeds towards the right, with the formation of the first stars and galaxies in the Universe.
