Well, we thought so, but the James Webb Space Telescope has found a quasar that simultaneously breaks a century-old theoretical limit and may explain the conundrum of gigantic black holes in the early universe.

From the Space Time Department of Corrections: We did in fact make a mistake in our image of the great Sir Arthur Eddington. We accidentally used a mis-labled image of George Lemaître. We're going to now go do 1000 hours of differential equations as penance.

Poor old LeMaitre , never got enough credit and then had to stand for a photo shoot 'cause Eddington was off chasing eclipses.

It’s amazing a channel at such astonishingly high academic, physical, and production level can exist and be publicly available to enlighten the general public, insofar as that public wants to be enlightened. And it is free to watch.

I don’t think we can overstate how lucky we are to have PBS Spacetime.

Wow! Awesome to see my own star formation video played when the subject is talked about at 5:43! PBS Space Time is one of my favorite channels so it's really an honor :-D Fascinating how the mix of de-emphasized angular momentum and the channeled radiation pressure allows more matter to fall in than would otherwise be possible, I can see how that could lead to much higher BH feeding rates.

Weird how learning and trying to understand the most extreme limits of our universe puts me in one of the calmest states of mind.

It just hit me how long I've been watching SpaceTime. It's always been top tier quality.. So, I went back to the very beginning to see how much Matt has changed and forgot that it had a different host originally!

It's so cool that humanity exists at a time when we can see to the edge of the universe and glimpse evere closer to seeing the beginning of time.
