Wording

[edit]

The article states: "This lead researchers to the theory that the progenitor star formed very recently from the merger of two very large stars." At a distance of 3.6 billion light-years it seems the light travelled faster than the speed of light to reach us. :-) I know what the article intended to state, however I would have thought a better choice of words would be more appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:c7f:c3c:3e00:d433:48e9:ae20:8512 (talkcontribs)

Thanks. I've made the text unambiguous, I think. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 11:20, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
