The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) made an important statement.
Scientists working at NASA announced that they have imaged the largest quasar after the Big Bang.
It is stated that the quasar in question is 12.7 billion light years away from Earth. If the study is supported by subsequent research, the furthest known point to Earth will be discovered.
The quasar was named PJ352–15. PJ352–15 is estimated to be about a billion times larger than the Sun.
Chandra X-ray observatory in space detected the lights of the quasar 160,000 light-years from the center of the explosion.
In other words, the rays that NASA now observes formed after the explosion that took place 160,000 years ago and dispersed into space. Scientists think that the quasar in question can give us information about the formation of the universe.
Because quasars occur in the early stages of galaxy formation. Galaxies that are young and turbulent are experiencing explosions that are not yet fully understood.
It is also about 300 million light-years away from the furthest beam of PJ352–15 ever detected.
The universe was not even a billion years old when PJ352–15 exploded.
