Why are quasars only found in very distant parts of the universe?

The evidence for the extreme distance is the extreme redshift. Also, in many cases, a coincidence has been found between a quasar and a galaxy.

∙ 14y agoQuasars, or "quasi-stellar objects", are star-like things that are incredibly far away and impossibly bright; far TOO bright to actually be stars. Scientists have no good data on the size of quasars, but they are likely to be much larger than ordinary stars.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThis means that quasars were more common in the early Universe. When we see a very distant object in the Universe, we are seeing our Universe's past, because it took the light billions of years to reach us.

∙ 13y agoThat is a good question - astronomers are actively pursuing an answer. So the only answer is: no one knows.

Is the universe expanding faster than a Boeing 747 can fly?
In fact, distant parts of the Universe are moving away from us faster than the speed of light.
What forces act in the same way in distant parts of the universe as in our solar system?
i dont know someone help
How to study the dark region of universe?
The only way we can study distant parts of the universe is through photons emitted from those regions. By definition, if it is "dark" then we cannot study it. W can only study its interactions with light that we can see.
What type of equipment is sent from earth to distant parts of the solar system?
The equipment that is sent from earth to distant parts of our solar system is satellites.
What observation used to support the big bang theory?
The evidence that the space within our Universe was almost infinitely dense about 13.7 billion years ago, and has been expanding at a (pretty much) steady rate ever since, is overwhelmingly persuasive. 1) The distance between us and all distant galaxies is increasing, and the rate at which that distance is increasing is directly proportional to the distance to those distant galaxies. 2) The existence, spectrum, and isotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation. 3) The ratio of hydrogen to helium in all parts of our Universe. 4) Quasars are seen far from us, but not close to us. 5) The ratio of long-lived isotopes to their decay products. 6) The absence of white dwarf stars older than about ten billion years. The evidence supporting Big Bang Cosmology is as solid as the evidence for a heliocentric solar system.

Where does microwave radiation come from A All parts of the universe B near parts of the universe C distant parts of the univerese D your own galaxy?
The answer is A all parts but, as this is obviously a home work question i suggest you read the link i will add below the answer in Related Source link, because you never know if your teachers is going to ask you for an example or 2.
What are the parts of the universe?
what are the four part of the universe

In whales the pelvis and femur are?
body parts inherited from a distant ancestor that have not disapeared yet.
What is a portion of the universe that can be separated from the rest of the universe?
There are currently no known means to actually separate parts of the universe physically from the rest of the universe.
What does the big bang theory answer?
Big Bang Cosmology (BBC) -- which states that the space contained in our Universe has been expanding for the last 13.8 billion years or so, and NOTHING ELSE -- answers the following questions: 1) Why is the space between us and all other distant galaxies growing larger, and why is the growth rate dependent on distance from us? 2) Why is there a cosmic microwave background radiation, why does it have a spectrum for a 2.7K blackbody, and why is it isotropic to one part in 10,000? 3) Why are all parts of our Universe about 90% hydrogen and 10% helium? 4) Why are there quasars far from us, but none close to us? All alternatives to BBC are reduced to stating, "I have absolutely no idea why our Universe has the above facts -- that's just the way our Universe happens to be." Science prefers a model that can fully explain several facts, as opposed to a model that fails to explain any of them, so BBC has become the only viable scientific model of our Universe.
What data gathred so far verifies the big bang theory?
The evidence that the space within our Universe was almost infinitely dense about 13.7 billion years ago, and has been expanding at a (pretty much) steady rate ever since, is overwhelmingly persuasive. 1) The distance between us and all distant galaxies is increasing, and the rate at which that distance is increasing is directly proportional to the distance to those distant galaxies. 2) The existence, spectrum, and isotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation. 3) The ratio of hydrogen to helium in all parts of our Universe. 4) Quasars are seen far from us, but not close to us. 5) The ratio of long-lived isotopes to their decay products. 6) The absence of white dwarf stars older than about ten billion years. The evidence supporting Big Bang Cosmology is as solid as the evidence for a heliocentric solar system.
