Quasar candidates, WISE image
Quasar candidates. Image from the all-sky survey from NASAs Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), showing a collection of quasar candidates. NASAs Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has identified millions of quasar candidates. Quasars are supermassive black holes with masses millions to billions times greater than our sun. The black holes feed off surrounding gas and dust, pulling the material onto them. As the material falls in on the black hole, it becomes extremely hot and extremely bright. This image zooms in on one small region of the WISE sky, covering an area about three times larger than the moon. The WISE quasar candidates are highlighted with yellow circles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing array of quasar candidates, captured by NASAs Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) during its all-sky survey. With its powerful infrared capabilities, WISE has successfully identified millions of these enigmatic objects scattered throughout the cosmos. Quasars, known as supermassive black holes, possess masses that are millions to billions times greater than our sun. In this image, we witness the intense gravitational pull of these celestial behemoths as they feed off surrounding gas and dust. As matter spirals into the black hole's event horizon, it becomes incredibly hot and luminous, illuminating the vast cosmic landscape with their brilliance. Zooming in on a small region within the WISE sky - an area three times larger than our moon - this illustration highlights numerous yellow circles representing potential quasar candidates. Each circle represents a tantalizing glimpse into the mysterious world of astrophysics and offers astronomers invaluable insights into understanding these extraordinary phenomena. With its stunning depiction of distant galaxies and starry vistas, this print from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel the secrets hidden within our vast universe. It encapsulates both the awe-inspiring beauty and scientific significance found in studying quasars – celestial wonders that continue to captivate scientists and stargazers alike.
