In an astonishing discovery, astronomers have identified an immense water reservoir orbiting a quasar more than 12 billion light-years away. This groundbreaking finding offers an unprecedented look ...

This artist's concept illustrates a quasar, or feeding black hole, similar to APM 08279+5255, where astronomers discovered huge amounts of water vapor. Gas and dust likely form a torus around the ...

In a new realm of the universe, where astronomy helps navigate unfathomable depths of creation a remarkable achievement of the most outstanding water reservoir has been discovered. It has as much ...

In a remarkable discovery, astronomers have found a massive water reservoir orbiting a quasar located over 12 billion light-years away. This extraordinary find offers a rare glimpse into the ...

In the words of Douglas Adams; astronomers have found some insanely weird and massively huge things in space. Mind bogglingly big. Some of those things are often inexplicable, but it’s always cool to ...

An international team of astronomers has discovered the largest and oldest reservoir of water ever detected in the universe, swirling around a massive black hole at the heart of a quasar galaxy 12 ...

This artist's concept illustrates a quasar, or feeding black hole, similar to APM 08279+5255, where astronomers discovered huge amounts of water vapor. Gas and dust likely form a torus around the ...

Water has been spotted inside a galaxy at the edge of the visible cosmos. Finding other such signals could help pin down the properties of monster black holes in the early universe. The telltale sign ...

Two teams of astronomers have discovered the largest and farthest reservoir of water ever detected in the universe. Looking from a distance of 30 billion trillion miles away into a quasar -- one of ...

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, ...
