6. Quasar Basics Size: Can get as big as one light-year across.
Distance from Earth: As far as 15 billion
light-years away.
Classification: A special type of
active galactic nucleus (AGN).
Redshift: Very high. (Redshift
is distance an object is away
from us, or the speed it is
traveling away from us.
