- Is the appearance of a quasar changing over time a sign that it has entered a new physical state, or are these objects just the extreme outliers of quasars at low activity?Imagine that an observed distant galaxy is measured to have a distance of 20 Mpc by a Type Ia supernovae and the redshift of the galaxy indicates the galaxy appears to be moving away from us at a speed of 2200 km/s. What would the Hubble constant be if measured solely based on this galaxy in units of km/s/Mpc?Why is there an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars?
