An extremely distant, and thus old, celestial object whose power output is several thousand times that of our entire galaxy.
a starlike object that may send out radio waves and other forms of energy; large red shifts imply enormous recession velocities
[quas(i-stellar) (st)ar.]
-
a distant celestial object that produces a spectrum that is heavily redshifted when viewed through a spectroscope.

A quasar (more recently known as a QSO, Quasi-Stellar Object) is a distant star-sized energy source in space that gives off lots of ultraviolet. They are compact and very far away, but they are also very bright.Some of these QSOs gives off large amounts of radiation, including radio waves and X-rays. The word quasar is short for quasi-stellar radio objects. Quasars were first detected by Maartin Schmidt and Allan R. Sandage in 1963 -1964.
