What are the most intense source of the light in the universe?

Some of the most intense sources of light in the universe are quasars, which are extremely bright and energetic regions around supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, and gamma-ray bursts, which are short bursts of high-energy gamma rays released during cataclysmic events like supernovae or neutron star mergers.


How many quarks in observable universe?

We as humans currently do not know for sure what the exact size of the universe is due to technological limitations, and the universe is likely infinite in space. However, we do know how far we can see into the universe. From our vantage point on Earth, we can observe objects up to about 46 billion light years away, proving that the universe is in fact quite large! As mentioned above we do not know really how big the Universe is. However, in recent years, using methods not even conceived of until recently, it is fairly certain that the time since the Big Bang which is the beginning of the Universe as we know it is very close to 13.7 billion years. This has come from the WMAP satellite which measured the Microwave Background Radiation which is the remnant of the original energy release from that incredible explosive beginning of the Universe. Now that would normally mean that the Universe should not be more then 13.7 billion light years in any direction. This seems to be what we are seeing when we look out into the very limits of the Universe using our best telescopes in space and on the ground. There is a possibility that the Universe could be much bigger then that as the Big Bang theory requires a brief period of "Inflation" were the expanding space of the Universe had to travel much faster then the speed of light briefly in order to make all the observed consequences of the Big Bang theory come to pass. This could expand the whole Universe well beyond the limits of the time involved. So far this has not proven to be the case. Yet space can expand faster then the speed of light. Remember travel in space is managed by the "Higgs Field" which limits travel to the speed of light. Whereas space itself can expand faster then the speed of light as there is no restriction in how fast space itself can expand, it just requires an enormous amount of energy which was available for only a short time immediately after the Big Bang occurred. That means within quintillionth's of a second.


What is the fastest thing in the galaxy and how does it compare to other celestial objects in terms of speed?

The fastest thing in the galaxy is light, which travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second. Light is the fastest thing in the universe and nothing can travel faster than it. Compared to other celestial objects, light is incredibly fast and can cover vast distances in a very short amount of time.


Where in the universe is red shift observed?

The short answer to this question is "everywhere". Redshift is one aspect of the Doppler effect of light. An observer, looking at an object that emits light, will see the apparent wavelength of that light either compressed to shorter values (if the object is moving toward the observer) or stretched to longer values (if the object is moving away from the observer). Since red light has a longer wavelength than blue light, a stretched wavelength is referred to as a "redshift". It turns out that all of the galaxies in the Universe are moving away from our galaxy, save for a few that are gravitationally bound together into the Local Group of galaxies to which the Milky Way belongs. Therefore, in every direction you look, the sky is full of redshifted galaxies. Within our galaxy, stars have random motions in addition to their general orbits around the galactic center. Some of those motions result in blueshift, some in redshift. So you can find blueshifted stars in every direction you look. But the stars are very local, distance-wise, compared with the redshifted galaxies.


What is the longest light year?

A light-year is a measure of distance that a photon of light will travel in one year .

Could Graham's number be stored in a modern computer?

Theoretically, enough of the formula behind it could be stored so that pieces of it could be calculated. For example, if you just wanted to look at the last ten digits or something like that. However, the entire number is far to big to be stored in perfect precision by any computer that has ever existed or ever will exist. How can I say "ever will exist"? Because, even written in scientific notation, i.e. with only one digit of precision, the number of digits in the exponent would exceed the number of atoms in the observable universe. The total number is easily larger than the number of Planck volumes into which the observable universe can be divided. If the whole observable universe were a computer, and every tiny quark and neutrino represented a bit of data, it could not store the entire number in absolute precision. And better observational equipment would not help expand the observable universe into a larger computer, since, at this level, the observable universe is bound not so much by our technology, but rather by the speed of light itself. So, the short answer to your question is "No."


How do you reset engine light to pass smog on a 1982 camaro?

Removing the positive battery terminal for 5 minutes will clear the codes and reset the computer. But, the light will come back on in short order if the problem that caused the light to come on in the first place is not corrected.
