7 Interesting Facts About The Universe

The Neighbors of Dark Matter!

Quasar is a unique phenomenon occurring near black holes which were at first detected in the 1960s. But scientists at that time didn’t know what it was and named it quasi-stellar- objects or Quasars. Later on, it was found out that the Quasars are formed when gases get too close to the black hole and swirl around it, forming an accretion disk around it. They heat up due to friction and then blast releasing a massive amount of radiation. The enormous amount of light released due to this phenomenon makes Quasar an incredibly bright object in the universe.
