Lyman-alpha blobs are large, glowing regions of hydrogen gas that emit strong Lyman-alpha radiation, which corresponds to the wavelength of light emitted by neutral hydrogen atoms when an electron transitions from the second energy level to the ground state. These blobs are typically found in the early universe, often associated with actively forming galaxies or regions with significant star formation.
