How long after the big bang did it take for stars to form?

Answer 1

the theory states that atoms formed during the big bang (like right as the big bang happened)

Protons and neutrons were allowed to form about one second after the Big Bang.

Electrons joined to nuclei to form permanent atomic bonds about 377,000 years later.

Answer 2

Galaxies were in existence no later than about 800 million years after Big Bang. We know because we've seen them.

Stars are thought to have formed about 150 million years after the Big Bang, but this is only a computational model.

Answer 3

Between 13.3 and 13.9 billion years ago is what has been estimated but many people believe the universe has been around for longer because some stars appear to be older than the universe itself.

Answer 4

This occurred during the Inflationary Epoch, about 10^-32 seconds after the Big Bang.
