Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / What is the correct age for a quasar?
« on: 22/06/2008 04:25:46 »
Greetings people,
I am new, My question is how are these distant objects some estimated at 14 billion light years came to get so remote from the earth, given that the universe is supposed to be only 14 billion years old.
I am aware of the red shift, and some quasars receding at a red shift of almost 6 or about 160 000 miles a second near the speed of light.
Regards
Alan
