16 Hubble s Law and Dark Matter
... The end of the quasar epoch seems to have been about 10 billion years ago; all the quasars we have seen are older than that. Why might that be? The black holes powering the quasars do not go away; it is believed that many, if not most, galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centers. ...

12 Introduction to Cepheid Variable Stars Exercise
... In 1952, W. Baade, studying RR Lyrae stars in the great Andromeda galaxy (M31), discovered an error in the PeriodLuminosity law which resulted in the distances to cepheid variables to double which also caused the distance to nearby galaxies to double. Since the distance to these galaxies doubled the ...

This causes the air over land to heat faster than the air over water. The warm air rises, starting a convection current that pulls air toward land from th ...
