The brightest gravitationally lensed quasar in the early Universe
The Hubble Space Telescope discovered the brightest quasar in the early universe through a gravitational lens. J0439+1634 is a high-redshift quasar that is gravitationally lensed to appear as though it is 600 trillion times brighter than the Sun. In reality, it's "only" 11 trillion times brighter than the Sun, but it is being magnified by a factor of 50 due to a gravitational lens. This makes J0439 the highest redshifted quasar seen through a gravitational lens. 🔔 Subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/christianready?sub_confirmation=1 🖖 Share this video with a fellow space traveler: https://youtu.be/pJ08d6vIcAw 🔴 Watch my most recent upload: https://goo.gl/QbRcE2 🚀 Help me improve the channel by joining the community on Patreon - https://ift.tt/2TVqkQ0 🚀 Check out Launch Pad merchandise! https://ift.tt/2JoLJNc Disclaimer: Some of these links go to one of my websites and some are affiliate links where I'll earn a small commission if you make a purchase at no additional cost to you. 🐟 From out of town?
