The Era of the First Stars
We think that the era of the first stars began around a hundred and 80 million years after the big bank. These gas clouds came together, they started to fuse hydrogen star to produce heat and light. And can talk about that later, because it is our single observation in this time.

Comes back together over many, many more millions of years to form the second generation of stars. We call them population too - we can still see them in our milky way.
