- Title: Quasar
- Artist: cherub_Shagami

Description:
A quasi-stellar radio source (quasar) is a powerfully energetic and distant galaxy with an active galactic nucleus. Quasars were first identified as being high redshift sources of electromagnetic energy, including radio waves and visible light, that were point-like, similar to stars, rather than extended sources similar to galaxies.
Think of it like this, a really big galaxy swirl that spits out energy waves.
