Twin Quasar: 1979 Lensed into 2 images The lens is a galaxy known as YGKOW G1: First quasar found with a jet with apparent superluminal motion 3C 279: 1971 [25] [26] [27] First quasar found with the classic double radio-lobe structure 3C 47: 1964 First quasar found to be an X-ray source 3C 273: 1967 [39] First "dustless" quasar found
A multiple-image quasar is a quasar whose light undergoes gravitational lensing, resulting in double, triple or quadruple images of the same quasar. The first such gravitational lens to be discovered was the double-imaged quasar Q0957+561 (or Twin Quasar) in 1979. [ 75 ]
Quasars, though, are on the small end of the supermassive black hole size class—sometimes just a few days across, or about 1,000 of the distance between Earth and the Sun, Space.com explains ...
This list includes superclusters, galaxy filaments and large quasar groups (LQGs). The structures are listed based on their longest dimension. This list refers only to coupling of matter with defined limits, and not the coupling of matter in general (such as, for example, the cosmic microwave background, which fills the entire universe). All ...

APM 08279+5255 was initially identified as a quasar in 1998 during an Automatic Plate Measuring Facility (APM) survey to find carbon stars in the galactic halo.The combination of its high redshift (z=3.87) and brightness (particularly in the infrared) made it the most luminous object yet seen in the universe.
A team of international astronomers recently announced the largest superstructure in the known universe. The immense structure named "Quipu" is estimated to stretch for an astonishing 1.4 billion ...
