Let's watch one young galaxy as it shrank under the force of gravity. The gas broke up into hundreds of smaller clouds. Gravity made each of these little clouds shrink even more. Stars began to form inside them. Each cloud formed millions of stars.
With a good telescope we can still see these large ancient star clusters today, dotted around the outside of the Galaxy where we live. We call them Globular Star Clusters.
