It loaded for me but here’s the paper it’s referring to: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06636-x

According to the article, a galaxy far far away looked like the Milky Way a long time ago. According to simulations, anyway. So, we can use it (along with other similar galaxies at different distances) to learn about the evolution of the Milky Way, the galaxy where all the coolest people live.
