A study of the gravitational lensing of this system suggests that the light emitted has been magnified by a factor of ~10. It is still substantially more luminous than nearby quasars such as 3C 273. Quasars were much more common in the early universe than they are today.
In more recent quasars, dust is not related to the quasar or galaxy. [7] QSO J0005-0006 was found to be dust free in a 2006 study of distant quasars, and confirmed as such in the 2010 study. The 2010 study removed the potential of masking the dust emission signature occurring, by studying the amount of obscuration of the quasar.

3C 273 is a quasar located at the center of a giant elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Virgo. It was the first quasar ever to be identified and is the visually brightest quasar in the sky as seen from Earth, with an apparent visual magnitude of 12.9. [2] The derived distance to this object is 749 megaparsecs (2.4 billion light-years).
PKS 0405–385 is a blazar [5] in the constellation of Eridanus. This is a compact radio quasar with a redshift (z) of 1.285, an indicator of its significant distance. [6] The radio spectrum of this source appears flat, making it a flat-spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ). [3]
PKS 0438-436, also known as PKS J0440-4333, is a quasar located in constellation Caelum.With a high redshift of 2.86, [1] the object is located 11.2 billion light-years from Earth [2] and is classified as a blazar due to its flat-spectrum radio source, [3] (in terms of the flux density as (F v ~ V-a) with α < 0.5 and its optical polarization.
Diwali is celebrated on the fifteenth day of the Hindu month of Kartika and, much like Easter, the date changes every year. In 2019, Diwali started on October 25 , in 2020, it fell on November 14 ...
