quasars are extremely rare is reinforced by the black hole has a mass of about 2 billion times in comparison with the Sun. He is also the most luminous objects that have been found from the period in which the universe was just 800 million years.

The signal arrived at Earth shows that he left when the universe was only about 5 percent of the current age of the objects located at great distance, as it is almost impossible to see with ordinary monitoring. The reason is, its rays extended by expanding the size of the universe.

This is when the beam arrives on Earth, mostly only the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum other took us five years to find this object, a quasar given the opportunity to explore space in the last 100 million years that were not possible,
