| A quasar looks like a star | |
| until you measure the **redshift**. | |
| Then it stops being a star. | |
| It becomes a **galaxy’s core** — | |
| a black hole with an accretion disk bright enough | |
| to be seen across **billions of light-years**. | |
| **Small object.** | |
| **Absurd output.** | |
| The light is old by the time it reaches you. | |
| The signal is not. |
