"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars ...

From decades of astronomical observations, scientists know that most galaxies contain massive black holes at their centers.

Telescopes around the world have spotted a monster radio jet streaming from a quasar dating back to the first 1 billion years ...

The quasar that powers this jet formed within the first 1.2 billion years of the universe's existence, when it was only 9% of ...

Surprisingly, the black hole driving this colossal jet is modest by quasar standards, weighing 450 million times the mass of ...

Researchers said on Thursday that they had discovered twin-lobed radio jets they suspect were formed when the universe was ...

Astronomers have characterized the largest-ever early-Universe radio jet. Historically, such large radio jets have remained elusive in the distant Universe. With these observations, astronomers have ...

A Yale-led team of astronomers has detected an intensely brightening and dimming quasar that may help explain how some objects in the early universe grew at a highly accelerated rate. The discovery, ...

A quasar from the early universe has revealed the longest black hole jet ever detected, spanning 200,000 light-years.

The object, named J0742+2704, is classified as a quasar, a type of active galaxy with jets so brilliant that they outshine the rest of the galaxy, causing it to resemble a point-like star in images.
