Today's quote
For some reason, this turn of phrase gave me a chuckle.
Occurring only 630 million years after the Big Bang, GRB 090423 detonated so early that astronomers had no direct evidence that anything explodable even existed back then.
This thing was also bright enough that we could see it from thirteen billion lightyears away. Zowie.
