It's less than 17 hours until the gates officially open at Coachella 2024, but the design team behind the festival's new Quasar stage is still hard at work. "We've got a few more hours to go here ...

Astrum. Quasar Spotted in the Milky Way! Posted: January 13, 2025 | Last updated: January 13, 2025. The James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered something extraordinary: a quasar within the Milky Way!

Astronomers have discovered the brightest object ever observed in the universe. Astronomers discovered a quasar, which is the "brightest of its kind" and the "most luminous object ever observed ...

Quasar 3C 273, which was the first of its kind discovered, is as luminous as 4 trillion suns or 100 times brighter than the entire Milky Way. "For Hubble, ...

To give some idea of the luminosity of a quasar, scientists at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory at University College London describe how the nearest quasar, 3C 272, has a luminosity of 2.5 x ...

A quasar is a blindingly bright galaxy core — brighter than all of the galaxy's starlight combined, according to NASA.Through telescopes, these sometimes look like a single star in the sky, but ...

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. — For the first time, astronomers have detected starlight from distant galaxies that host extremely bright supermassive black holes called quasars. Data from the James Webb ...

A quasar that close could have caused a lull in star formation that astronomers might someday detect by measuring precise ages for our galaxy’s oldest stars (SN: 3/23/22).

For the study, the researchers compared NuSTAR observations of a distant quasar — designated J1429 +5447 — with unrelated observations of four months earlier by the Chandra X-ray telescope. The ...

Picture a black hole so powerful that it swallows the equivalent of one sun every day.. Now imagine that black hole also has a mass that's 17 billion times larger than our sun. Scientists in ...
