Hi Rob, I was thinking the same 600,000,000 years ago I can't image so many galaxies forming that quickly. There still could be a bit more undiscovered science involved but those galaxy looked a lot older in as far as formation.

Although they look quite compacted at such a far distance. There is speculation of an expanding and contracting universe, maybe this is a result of this, highly compressed already formed galaxies, also possiblity that universe compression is not full maybe a few million light years before expanding again.
