This kind of bright energy source is about the size of the solar system and is billions of light- years from earth?
Quasars
Are quasars part of your solar system?
No, quasars are not part of the solar system. Quasars are extremely distant and energetic objects located in the far reaches of the universe, millions or billions of light years away from our solar system. They are powered by supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies.
How are astronomers able to determine that quasars are so small?
Astronomers determine the size of quasars by analyzing the variability of their light. Quasars show rapid and dramatic changes in brightness over short periods, indicating that they must be very compact, likely smaller than our own solar system. By studying the time scales of these changes, astronomers can estimate the size of quasars.

Do quasars range between 1 and 500 miles in diameter and revolve around the sun?
Quasars are believed to be gigantic black holes - millions of times the mass of our Sun. If we were anywhere near a quasar, it would be more accurate to state that the Sun (or the Solar System) revolves around the quasar, not the other way round.
