Can life exist on a quasar?
No. Life cannot exist anywhere near a quasar. For one thing there is no "on" a quasar. A quasar consists of a disk of extremely hot matter falling into a supermassive black hole. What cannot cross the event horizon is ejected in jets at the poles at nearly the speed of light. The radiation of even a moderate quasar is more than 10 trillion times that of the sun. Even light years away any planet would be completely sterilized.
How do you measure the size of a black hole?
The size of a quasar can be inferred from the timescale of variations in its light output. Assuming that no signal can travel across the source faster than the speed of light, the time scale of the fastest variations sets an upper limit on the size of the quasar (i.e., size quals approximately the variation timescale times speed of light). An alternative method called 'reverberation mapping' monitors changes in the quasar's light output, then looks for these same changes in the light output from specific spectral lines. The delay times the speed of light gives the size of the quasar.
When was Twin Quasar created?
Twin Quasar was created in 1979.
How long does it take for light to hit a quasar 58656960000000000000000 miles away?
It never gets here. Its light took a billion years.
A quasar is a type of?
A type of galaxy is probably the answer you are looking for. However, a quasar is actually an active galactic nucleus.
What is a length of a quasar?
The diameter of a quasar is a few light-hours or a few light-days. A quasar consists of the immediate surroundings of a supermassive black hole.
What are the program codes for a quasar tv on a rca rcr3273 universal remote?
i have a rca remote without any light, have a quasar tv, how do i make this work?
Star-like source of light that is extremely far from the earth?
Quasar

It is not.
Which star is furthest away from earth?
10 billion light years was the distance. And we believe it was a quasar.
What is tiny point of light that is very small very far away and very bright called?
quasar
When was Quasar Padamsee born?
Quasar Padamsee was born in 1978.
Quasar in a sentence?
Astronomers have detected a quasar in a distant galaxy.
When was Twin Quasar created?
Twin Quasar was created in 1979.
What is evidence that a quasar is distant?
a large redshift in the spectrum of the quasar.
