  1. What is new in the Universe, is actually very old!

    The European Space Agency’s Euclid space telescope has discovered 31 of the most ancient quasars ever found.

    Two of these galaxy cores EUCL J172902.75+641018.1 and EUCL J125308.55+705432.3 are powered by gargantuan black holes, and are the earliest quasars yet observed in cosmic history.

    Both lie just over 13 billion light-years away, and emerged during the Universe’s first 670 million years – just 5% of its current age. esa.int/Science_Exploration/Sp #EU #Euclid #SpaceTelescope #Space #Universe #Astronomy #Quasars #BlackHoles #Galaxy #CosmicHistory

  2. Ever wondered, where exactly is Gaia 17bpi??

    Welp, Spitzer has you covered!

    Located in our #constellation of the month Sagitta, Gaia 17bpi is a young star that nom nommed (that's the technical term, I'm sure) some of the matter around it, causing the star to brighten.

    Gaia 17bpi is a member of the FU Orionis class of stars (as an aside: FU orion *is* a thing I think, but that's not what it means here... you can find out more about that on our #orion #mythology pod here: starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/)
