For the first time, astronomers have looked inside quasars – the brightest objects in the universe – and have seen evidence of black holes. The study lends further confirmation to what scientists have long suspected – that quasars are made up of super-massive black holes and the super-heated disks of material that are spiraling into them. The results of the Ohio State University-led project was reported on Thursday at the meeting of the American Astronomical Society (AAS) High Energy Astrophysics Division in San Francisco.
