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 ]
The 1997 science-fiction film Men In Black, starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, was loosely based on The Men in Black comic book series created by Lowell Cunningham and Sandy Carruthers. [11] Cunningham got the idea for the comic when he and a friend saw a black van on the street and his friend joked about government "men in black". [12]
ULAS J1342+0928 is the third-most distant known quasar detected and contains the second-most distant and oldest known supermassive black hole, [1] [5] [6] [7] at a reported redshift of z = 7.54. The ULAS J1342+0928 quasar is located in the Boötes constellation . [ 3 ]
Men in Black 3 is the third film in the series. When the notorious alien criminal Boris the Animal escapes LunarMax Security Prison to seek revenge on K for capturing him in 1969, he is able to use secret time-travel technology to go back in time and undo the events of his defeat, resulting in a new timeline where K is killed during his fight ...
The cosmic scale of time is long, and supermassive black holes can be thousands of light years across. Quasars, though, are on the small end of the supermassive black hole size class—sometimes ...
First quasar found to seemingly not have a host galaxy HE0450-2958 (Naked Quasar) 2005 Some disputed observations suggest a host galaxy, others do not. First multi-core quasar PG 1302-102: 2014 Binary supermassive black holes within the quasar [37] [38] First quasar containing a recoiling supermassive black hole SDSS J0927+2943: 2008
As a quasar, TON 618 is believed to be the active galactic nucleus at the center of a galaxy, the engine of which is a supermassive black hole feeding on intensely hot gas and matter in an accretion disc. Given its observed redshift of 2.219, the light travel time of TON 618 is estimated to be approximately 10.8 billion years.
APM 08279+5255 is a very distant, broad absorption line quasar located in the constellation Lynx. It is magnified and split into multiple images by the gravitational lensing effect of a foreground galaxy through which its light passes. It appears to be a giant elliptical galaxy with a supermassive black hole and associated accretion disk.
