  2. 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.

  3. CTA-102 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CTA-102

    The idea that the emission was caused by a civilization was rejected when the radio source was later identified as one of the many varieties of a quasar. [ 3 ] The American folk rock band The Byrds whimsically reflected the original view that CTA-102 was a sign of extraterrestrial intelligence in their song "C.T.A.-102" from their 1967 album ...

    Version 2 (as defined in 861-A) added the capability to designate a number of DTDs as "native" (i.e., matching the resolution of the display) and also included some "basic discovery" functionality for whether the display device contains support for "basic audio", YC B C R pixel formats, and underscan.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_distance_ladder

    By comparing this known luminosity to an object's observed brightness, the distance to the object can be computed using the inverse-square law. These objects of known brightness are termed standard candles, coined by Henrietta Swan Leavitt. [13] The brightness of an object can be expressed in terms of its absolute magnitude. This quantity is ...

    RX J1131-1231 is the name of the complex, quasar, host galaxy and lensing galaxy, together. The quasar's host galaxy is also lensed into a Chwolson ring about the lensing galaxy. The four images of the quasar are embedded in the ring image. Cloverleaf: 4 [3] Brightest known high-redshift source of CO emission [4] QSO B1359+154: 6

    The monitor has an 11.5-inch wide CRT (measured diagonally) with 90 degree deflection, etched to reduce glare, with a resolution of 350 horizontal lines and a 50 Hz refresh rate. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 6 ] It uses TTL digital inputs through a 9-pin D-shell connector, being able to display at least three brightness levels, according to the different pin ...
