Description
Astronomers are puzzled after discovering a radio-jet-emitting Quasar dating back to the early Universe [https://www.space.com/most-distant-radio-loud-quasar-jets]. This week on Space Radio Live I talk about why this is such a conundrum, as well as these other subjects:► Why quasars and AGNs are more common in the distant past;► Difference(s) between a black hole singularity and the Big Bang singularity;► Black holes and frame dragging and ergospheres - OH MY!► Do Cherenkov radiation particles experience time going backwards?► … and much more.Cover Image: Artistic representation of the quasar P172 + 18 (Credit: ESO / M.
