A group of scientists from NASA has discovered the largest supply of water in the universe. It is in a quasar 12 billion light years away.
The the largest water reserve in the universe is not in Tierra, the planet of life. Incredibly, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASAfor its acronym in English), he found a place where there is plenty, much more than that, vital fluid. It is in quasar.
What is a quasar?
According to EarthSky, quasarsalthough at first they confused scientists who believed they were stars, They are young galaxieswhich is located at great distances from Tierrawhose number increases towards the edge visible universe.
The largest water supply in the universe is not on Earth
In range 12 billion light years is located the largest water reserve in the universe. Es 140 billion times higher, in quantity, to the liquid that our planet contains. In addition, due to the remoteness, the study of this deposit can provide a unique view of the early stages of the universewhen he barely had 1.6 billion years.

Matt Bradford, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, discussed the discovery at UNILAD and warned that he can confirm it exists. of water throughout the universe.
“The environment surrounding this quasar is unique in the sense that it produces this huge mass of water,” the specialist said. “It’s yet another demonstration that water is ubiquitous throughout the universe, even at the most remote times.”
