The Dawn of the First Stars
This chapter explores the formation of the first stars in the universe, their ignition leading to the ionization of gas, and the gradual transition of the universe from opacity to transparency. It delves into the concept of reionization, the formation of ionized gas bubbles around stars, and the significance of ionization in transforming the early universe into a visible and ultraviolet light-permeable environment.
