  2. Extended Display Identification Data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_display...

    The data format is defined by a standard published by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). The EDID data structure includes manufacturer name and serial number, product type, phosphor or filter type (as chromaticity data), timings supported by the display, display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) pixel mapping ...

  3. QSO J0529-4351 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QSO_J0529-4351

    The object itself was detected in ESO images dating back to 1980, but its identification as a quasar occurred only several decades later. [2]An automated analysis of 2022 data from the European Space Agency's Gaia satellite did not confirm J0529-4351 as too bright to be a quasar, and suggested it was a 16th magnitude star with a 99.98% probability.

    Artist's impression of QSO J0439+1634. Note the prominent blue hue. QSO J0439+1634, [4] often referred to by just its coordinates, J0439+1634 or J043947.08+163415.7, [1] is a superluminous quasar, and was, until 20 February 2024, (when it was superseded by QSO J0529-4351) considered the brightest quasar in the early universe with a redshift of z = 6.51.

    High brightness sunlight readable monitors are typically used commercially in kiosks, vending systems, pipeline inspection systems, outdoor digital signage and advertising, in sports stadiums, in military vehicles, on ships for navigation systems, on bus and train platforms, and much more.

  6. APM 08279+5255 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APM_08279+5255

    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.

  7. Redshift (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift_(software)

    The program is free software and is intended to reduce eye strain, as well as insomnia [3] (see Sleep § Circadian clock and Phase response curve § Light). Redshift transitions the computer display's color temperature evenly between daytime and night temperatures to allow the user's eyes to slowly adapt.

  8. Quasar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasar

    This quasar's luminosity is, therefore, about 4 trillion (4 × 10 12) times that of the Sun, or about 100 times that of the total light of giant galaxies like the Milky Way. [49] This assumes that the quasar is radiating energy in all directions, but the active galactic nucleus is believed to be radiating preferentially in the direction of its jet.

  9. 3C 273 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3C_273

    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).
