The Most Distant Quasar Ever Discovered

[@mancamiatipoola]

I'm so glad i am subscribed to this channel. One of the most interesting and informative channels on YT :). Every time i get a new mail notification about a Spacerip upload i'm like a kid in a candy store: "YEY !" Gotta love science and all the beauty it brings us. :)

[@Sanngot]

@Xxac1348xX There is a limit to how far into the past we can see. That is because the very early universe (when it was denser) was still opaque, and light couldn't propagate through it. That is pretty much the wall we run into when trying to look farther back in time. At least that is how I understand it.

[@knivesron]

spcerip you guys fucknig rock, i love it when i see a video by you guys i haventseen. i love how most of your stuff is in 1080p, your channel is just awsome. keep up the good work it makes my day being able to be informed with this genius work

[@FirewallProtected]

mike ferarri, the universe is expanding because of the explosion from the big bang. the force was so powerful that galaxies are still moving out from the epicenter, however eventually everything will stop moving out and it will all come back in together causing matter to be compressed to the point of another big bang. so what was before the big bang? another universe. Its theory, but its the only theory that has ever made sense

[@tropickman]

The initial expansion lasted for roughly several hundred thousand years. You are right in the sense that some light would have never reached us, had the expansion not ended. Some objects were relatively close to out relative point in space, but due to expansion, its light could not reach us. It is only now, that the light is making up lost distance due to this initial expansion.

[@AstronomyGuru84]

3C 273 is an interesting quasar in the constellation Virgo. It was the first quasar to be identified and, at 2.44 billion light years, it's the closest quasar to us. It was imaged by Hubble in 1995 and by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. It's bright enough to be visible with a larger size amateur telescope.

[@NumberRed]

Finding this now makes me wonder what we'll find in 5 years or more?!?! Can't wait, I hope they discover more like this.

[@anodominate]

I kinda miss the awesome content by this awesome channel. So sad I got this inspirational channel after a decade. But nevertheless I'm happy I found it.

[@BranimirMiladinov]

Truly amazing videos! : )

[@HellaUtube]

SpaceRip made me no choice but to watch their videos on 1080p only!!! Thank you SpaceRip!!

[@deeliciousplum]

@SpaceRip Thank you so much for sharing this vid. Quite a wondrous find.

[@Cakevspie94]

@gaiagale I felt as though their description of the quasar was appropriate given the situation. The video is based on the most distant quasar ever discovered and less on quasars themselves. The knowledge is somewhat assumed of the viewer

[@gamesbok]

Quasars are driven by the black hole eating material, but they alse exert an outward pressure. More precisely the accretion disk does. This outward pressure will oppose the matter falling inward, and so the quasar has the tendency to turn itself off.

[@ScarletEdge]

A massive and extremely remote celestial object, emitting exceptionally large amounts of energy, and typically having a starlike image...

[@Matu1]

So basicly we go back in time, this image has traveled 12,9 billion years to reach us. Amazing..

[@nedved5000]

Is it weird that I get excited when a new SpaceRip video is uploaded? :O

[@warlord1981nl]

@TehZorzGuy It has something to do with the event horizon, which is kinda like a point of no return. As long as that point isn't crossed you can escape "easily" as the energy needed will be finite but cross it and the escape energy needed is infinite preventing anything from escaping. The matter jets that are observed are formed before the event horizon.

[@Neueregel]

Nice vid, but please next time include more Statistics about this Quasar like how many Light years away , what's its Redshift, WHERE in the sky is that located (constellations etc) , and of course what is its NAME(?). Thanks in advance!!

[@zcxvasdfqwer1234]

Very exciting time to be alive right now. I feel like our descendants may consider this time a sort of second Renaissance in scientific and artistic progress.

[@deeliciousplum]

What a wonderful discovery! Thank you so very much for sharing this vid.

[@dylan3657]

all this is in us, in our mind, in our ability to perceive. sight taken for granted is wasted

[@quaxk]

@SirMaximus21 yes, when the sky is clear and there's not too much light pollution you can see the milky way with the naked eye, but not bright like in that video, this is a time-lapse made of long exposure shots

[@turnermedman1231]

maybe it's just me, but the more we find out about space, black holes, how vast space is, meteors and astras flying about out of control, how small the earth is to the rest of space, how big the seas of the world are, and the sun could flare out and fry us all at any time, the more scary i get. i just don't want to know any of it. dose any body else think like i do?

[@SillyScyllia]

wow oO 770 million years that's quite fresh

[@stramster1]

@wengneuda13 A Quasar or Quasi Stellar Radio Source is widely believed to be a feeding super massive black hole at the center of a galaxy. During galactic evolution there are times when massive amounts of matter are being consumed by the black hole at their center. This gives rise to energetic jets of charged particles emanating from the poles. Young galaxies and colliding galaxies are thought to be the main culprits. They are among the most energetic things yet discovered.

[@Krissypoo508]

@GusMacGus313 It has relativistic mass (meaning that it has energy which can be transformed into mass [E = mc^2]) It does not have rest mass though since it cannot _be_ at rest (meaning that it does not exhibit/experience a gravitational pull)

[@nybotheveg]

@Ridleysama i know that but i think it's safe to assume that the space is a vacuum. but yes the gravity from the quassar could have slowed down the light, but i don't think it's anything of significance

[@--Canon--]

This video just blew my mind away.

[@Pennilee1]

Man.. because light can travel to about (approximately) 300,000 miles per second, that means.... 12.9 billion years to get over here..I'm surprised that the energy didn't fade off. :O

[@MzBUZZKILINGTON]

1:14 makes me feel so small and insignificant.

[@boipinoi604]

@SirMaximus21 I'm from BC too. From my understanding, you have to watch the night sky away from the city lights.

[@rumandbass]

@panto5310 because the speed of light is the universal speed limit for photons. Imagine you're driving a car in a straight line, and for this thought experiment, you can see very very far. At a distant point down the road you see nothing. Once you get closer, you can see workers putting in a stop sign. Once you get there, the stop sign has been completed. So, just because the stop sign wasn't already there when you started your trip, doesn't mean you in your car won't interact with it now.

[@Riotboy1]

I'm so thankful to be part of this Universe.

[@tropickman]

Imagine a running track 100m long. Imagine a person starting to walk down the track. Now also imagine that the track expands 1m/s, for every 100m of track. When the person has walked for 10 seconds, the track would have stretched so that he still need to walk 99m to reach the other side. Keep in mind that the track lengthens exponentially. At the beginning it is 100m long, so it will be 101m long after one second. In the 2nd second, the track will expand 1.1 meters, to become 102.1m long.

[@FunnCubes]

@TehZorzGuy the jets are matter that flyes out of the gravitational pull, in form of radioactivity... you could imagin it as food, the back hole cant eat anymore, its eating a lot of Mass, but its faster falling in, than the Black hole can take, and instead of being sucked intoo the dark horizon (where nothing can escape/ the point even light cant escape anymore) its shot out as those jets... or so far i've understood... but i am not shure... they could also come out of the dark horizon...idk...

[@buddy39914]

goddamn just imagine being right above it and staring at the size

[@gajen20]

@TehZorzGuy - The light cant escape from a black hole - Those matters ecapes the black hole because the black hole is eating much more than what it can keep in its mouth

[@20051470]

@TehZorzGuy they are ejected far from the event horizon, at a distance still "safe enough" where escape is still possible

[@nactan]

@ShogunnSlimm huh, why not? the space around the singularity is a bent 3d space, just as the basin is a bent 2d surface.

[@rayd408]

It's so amazing how far this place is, that we will never go to. Even if we can go warp drive or use wormholes maybe it's so far we can measure a billion warp years instead of 12.

[@Ridleysama]

@firehop3 You require a lot more research. The jets are from gas that has accumulated at the poles of the black hole's magnetic field, in which the gas is ejected as highly charged particles. The material in the jets never enter the black hole. Material that enters the black hole becomes more mass for the black hole.

[@Xxac1348xX]

This makes me wonder if we could look back 14 billion years back and actually see the Big Bang and how the universe started... maybe impossible but who knows...

[@TehZorzGuy]

I believe I worded my question terribly wrong. What I meant to ask was: If a black hole is so powerful that NOT EVEN light can escape it, than how can the jets of matter be ejected from it without being pulled back to the black hole?" Sorry for the confusion for the 30 or more people who responded to the question.

[@sir313jonsson]

energy turned into matter during the big bang

[@Ridleysama]

@nybotheveg Photons always move at a speed of about 3 time 10 to the power of 8 meters per seconds. That's the speed of light constant. Obstacles can slow Photons down but once the Photons clear the Obstacles, the Photons will resume the speed of light. Light may not be a constant but the speed of light is a constant.

[@nactan]

@ShogunnSlimm think of water in a basin. due to gravity, the hole at the bottom sucks out all the water, right? then why does water still swirl all around it?

[@EdouardDubois]

@OrigaMagic The successor is going to be the Extremely Large Telescope.

[@helloitsnicko]

I love the name "Very Large Telescope"... such an imaginative name! :P

[@Salien1999]

@Xxac1348xX We probably can't because the light from it probably didn't last very long, so the light is probably near the edge of the universe if it is still strong enough.

[@Krissypoo508]

Awesome, I love learning about space/astronomy! :D

[@Ridleysama]

@cangri48lbp Black Holes have an even more powerful magnetic field than their gravitation pull. The material of the jets are propelled via the poles of their magnetic field. How jets are emitted is actually known.

[@Miranox2]

@TehZorzGuy Probably because that matter did not pass the event horizon. Each black hole has a specific distance at which its gravity becomes stronger than the speed of light. That is the event horizon.

[@louistournas120]

It is the matter that rotates around the black hole that emits electromagnetic radiation.

[@HIRVIism]

We are seeing it as it was when the universe was only about 770 million years old = about 13 billion years ago

[@Daethlisangel]

What i don't get is that, at that distance and at the age of light reaching earth is 12.9 billion years old means that it is some odd billion/million years further than we suspect?

[@Riotboy1]

@eLLriDe420 I was born in the 70's, but THANKS!

[@hilbert54]

What effect do these jets have on the solar systems with these galaxies? I realise that most of the energy is directed away from the rest of that galaxy. What about nearby galaxies?

[@hossein1413]

IS it posible to know where the bang bang started in he universe? At what location of the universe if we think the universe as a ovale form.

[@TheModernwarfare2009]

@NoFaithNoPain yes they use redshift i believe and 12.9 billion years ago the Earth and the Sun didnt even exist

[@Tanmark1998]

this is just amazing. if this quasar was there 12.9 million years ago, it is possible that the matter moved after the dying star, and that that quasar is the Andromeda galaxy for a part now. i am really wondering what that quasar looked like later. to find out, we just have to wait a few million or billion years :P. or, we could get closer to the quasar ourselfs and wait 150 seconds shorter!

[@ChessNetwork]

SpaceRip is VVG, Very Very Good

[@dylan3657]

i know we should send someone into a blackhole with one of them camera phones and an extra strong signal they could take photos and describe it to us?

[@LiamE69]

@proGaimz Gravity is just a theory but that doesnt mean it may or may not exist. In science the word theory is not used in the same way as we do in everyday language to be synonymous with an idea. In science a theory is the best functional parsimonous explanation we have that explains observed facts and laws and predicts testable phenomena. A theory is highest level of confidence that can be reached in science.

[@nactan]

@ShogunnSlimm i'm thinking you may not understand the space bendy thing very well. i'm not sure how well i'll be able to explain it in the comments section. read up on the stretched rubber sheet analogy. it's all over the web.

[@Ridleysama]

@frostyuk2007 Since that light is not escaping from the black hole, having never been pulled passed the Event Horizon. The jets are cause by gas that is being propelled via the Black Hole's Magnetic Field. Electromagnetism is a stronger force than gravity. And no, the light and gas are not moving faster than the speed of light. That's impossible.

[@Ridleysama]

@Tanmark1998 Compared to other stars, the Sun is a small star. Compared to the Universe, you can't even call the sun a speck as our super galaxy cluster is a dot in comparison to the Universe.

[@MaxiPCX]

can someone please help me out here? I live in BC, Canada and I want to know if I am capable of watching a clear night such as the one shown at 1:05 Also, is it possible to watch these kind of night skies with your own eyes or do you need special cameras? Ty.

[@ReverseTranscriptase]

@TehZorzGuy When a black whole eats too much matter, it starts ejecting matter back into space.

[@dylan3657]

there is no begining there is no end, you can count on that,my friend. maybe at the center of every atom is a black hole and thats what keeps it together. a different scale

[@DmNetworks]

Something is wrong here. I just watched a documentary and it said: The first star was formed arround 1 bilion years after the big bang, so what is with this quasar 750 milion years after the big bang shining there? I understand that quasars hold many milions or bilions of stars, how is that possible?

[@thomaswoodworth7644]

Redshift in space does equal distance.

[@steviewonder2049]

Surely this quasar was so much closer 12 billion years ago...so the light from that time would have passed earth before now ? I can't get my head around this :-(

[@GonzaloBelascuen]

@TehZorzGuy i think it's because they dont get in the event horizont, so they can actually escape

[@SuperLaugh20]

Yay another SpaceRip vid!

[@IngeniousMrToad]

how is to telepscoper gettingly of so closely of an picstures if is of 12.9 billions of mileage?

[@thas1227]

woah that is amazing! quasars are super awesome

[@Funkmastabuzz]

Thanks for the reply. I get that but how can it escape the gravity. How can it be both ways. Nothing can escape the gravity of a BH yet it can spit out jets. Should the statement be "theres only one thing that can escape a blackholes gravity" Cheers

[@imablowyomind]

Just realized everything is supposed to kill us but were saved by the sun and other unknown things I don't know yet.

[@toastsandwich]

another great video

[@daqde6bob]

Imagine walking this distance on foot :D.

[@TehZorzGuy]

If black holes are so powerful that only light can escape it, how can those jets of matter be ejected from it?

[@dylan3657]

@swiftsnake3 it's just moving at a differnt speed of time when you go inside it will be normal

[@truvelocity]

@LiamE69 FACE! I love that the world is full of bright people.

[@LesPaul2006]

@4dsouzaluiz Ever heard of the multiverse hypothesis? It is mind boggling indeed. You also have to consider that ordinary 3 dimensional space might not be all there is.

[@Funkmastabuzz]

If nothing can escape a black hole how does it shoot out the "jets"?

[@Tanmark1998]

@yapanuwan 13.7 billion years ago. and with some new maths and science, possibly 27.4 billion years.

[@nybotheveg]

@1nf1n1tyW1th1n well we have allready proven that what we see isn't in real time by showing that the speed of light isn't a constant.

[@keyofdoornarutorscat]

@OrigaMagic At least it is not called "Q-234235pieeatyounow".

[@HoboTango]

we are seeing it as it was 770 million years ago... this make me think....are we living in a fucking mirror ?!

[@Pennilee1]

@yaxpak1 I kind of agree with you about the /entire/ universe not having a beginning (in a way), but I don't agree with the rest of your opinion.

[@sumittechkgp]

I got goosebumps !!!!!!

[@boipinoi604]

How do you know you are observing cosmic activity which occured when the universe was 770 million years old.

[@LesPaul2006]

@4dsouzaluiz The Universe is limited. Thing is, we are incredibly slow, small, weak and live way too short. Sad but true, we're little maggots.

[@JamieCunningham]

my head exploded when i heard were watching something from 12 billion years ago :L

[@agentx3]

This stuff is interesting.

[@fukkuutube]

@TehZorzGuy what space is space taking up o.O

[@louistournas120]

"The "bigbang" theory is the most laughable of them all all this being created by a tiny rotating molecule. Really??" The Big Bang theory doesn't say that the universe was originally a tiny rotating molecule.

[@breakaleg10]

This would mean that quasars are no more, right?

[@nybotheveg]

@1nf1n1tyW1th1n no the light has travel a distance of 25.8 billion light years. lightyears are a distance and years is a time. you can't add or subtract them from eachother.

[@NammerTan]

@houdini178 NIce to meet you buddy!
