... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... Astronomers at the US DOE?s Berkeley Lab have found the most distant Type 1a supernova ever. б SN SCP-0401 is roughly 10 billion light-years away from Earth. б That means the supernova happened 10 billion years ago. б Given that Big Bang theory estimates the universe being created roughly 13.77 billion years ago, the discovery of SN SCP-0401 is particularly exciting. ... Just like all living things stars have a life cycle. ...
