Introduction to Astrophysics/Quasars

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

Quasars are typically massive and extremely remote to the other entities within space's "fabric". They emit huge amounts of energy and show up as a star in telescopic imagery. As this is only theory, is has to be suggested, they represent the evolutionary sequence of many galaxies that are classified as a quasar. It is also important to note that these usually contain many super-massive black holes.
