Quasar's are aspects of the universe which we do not have a great deal of knowledge on. Quasar's are what many believe to be a star at first look. When ever we look at a Quasar we mistake it to be a star because the cluster of galaxies distorts the objects in the distance, in this case the Quasar. In actuality Quasar's were originally discovered as radio sources back in the 1950's and 1960's. Scientists now believe that Quasar's are actually a circle of matter which has a new galaxy growing within it. Using Hubble's law, one would work out that Quasar's are between 780-28 billion light years away from Earth. As it is hard to determine the exactness of a real Quasar, not a great deal of info can be gathered on the mysteries of Quasar's
