Giant Jets Bigger Than The Milky Way Seen Shooting From Black Hole
A supermassive black hole in the early Universe has been spotted blasting out powerful jets of plasma that are at least twice as long as the Milky Way is wide. Its host galaxy is a quasar called J1601+3102, and we're seeing it as it was less than 1.2 billion years after the Big Bang. Spanning 215,000 light-years from end to end, this is the largest structure of its kind seen in those early stages of the Universe's formation, and astronomers think it can answer some questions about how they grow. "We were searching for quasars with strong radio jets in the early Universe, which helps us understand how and when the first jets are formed and how they impact the evolution of galaxies," explains astrophysicist Anniek Gloudemans of the National Science Foundation's NOIRLab. Jets are a particularly interesting supermassive black hole behavior. When there is enough material close to a supermassive black hole in the center of a galaxy, it swirls around, forming a disk of material that feeds into the black hole, drawn in by its extreme gravity. That feeding often produces a quasar, blazing with light as the swirling material is heated by friction and gravity to temperatures of millions of degrees. Not all the material falls onto the black hole beyond escape, though. Some of it gets diverted along the magnetic field lines outside the event horizon and accelerated to the black hole's poles, where it is launched into space with tremendous speed. These eruptions of material form jets, and they blast out into space for huge distances. The longest we've found to date are 23 million light-years from end to end, much later in the lifetime of the Universe. However, they only emit light in radio waves, which makes them a little tricky to see. To identify J1601+3102, Gloudemans and her colleagues had to combine observations from multiple telescopes, including the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) Telescope in Europe, Gemini North in Hawaii, and the optical Hobby-Eberly Telescope in Texas. These observations didn't just reveal the extent of J1601+3102's jets, they allowed the researchers to study the black hole. The amount of light emitted by the quasar activity can be analyzed to reveal the black hole's mass. It's just 450 million times the mass of the Sun, a relatively modest size for a quasar black hole. And it's not scarfing down matter at a particularly high rate, either. These properties suggest that quasars could be more varied than we generally assume. "Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars," Gloudemans says. "This seems to indicate that you don't necessarily need an exceptionally massive black hole or accretion rate to generate such powerful jets in the early Universe." The discovery was detailed in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.

Telescope Innovations Presents Results of Second Fiscal Quarter 2025
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 23, 2025) - Telescope Innovations Corp. (CSE: TELI) (OTCQB: TELIF) (FSE: J4U) ("Telescope Innovations", "Telescope", or the "Company") a developer of advanced technologies and services for the global pharmaceutical and chemical industries, reports financial results for the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2025 (Q2). The Company generated revenues of $1.0 million during this quarterly period, and an adjusted EBITA loss of $0.4 million. Telescope continues to strategically reinvest revenues to drive operational growth, and financial results are consistent with management's budget expectations and FY 2025 targets. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FISCAL QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2025 All values are represented in CAD. Revenues of $1,004,121 (versus $686,205 for the comparable period in FY 2024) Expenses of $1,717,470 (versus $1,277,418 for the comparable period in FY 2024) Adjusted EBITA loss of $441,837 (versus loss of $325,488 for the comparable period in FY 2024) OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS FLAGSHIP PRODUCT EXPANSION INTO CHINA, AND FIRST USER FORUM HOSTED BY METTLER TOLEDO. Telescope and their global distribution partner, Mettler Toledo, launched the distribution of Telescope's DirectInject-LC™ product in China. The Company also executed several product demonstrations at large accounts in expanded geographic markets, to cadvance the commercial adoption already established in the US, Europe, and Japan. In addition, Mettler Toledo hosted the first DirectInject-LC™ user forum to capitalize on and expand the product's momentum. This seminar was attended by over 200 prospective and active customers, and featured speakers from AstraZeneca, Genentech, and Takeda. These speakers presented the advantages of deploying DirectInject-LC™ within their R&D pipeline, while Telescope also presented the product's features and best practices to expand customer awareness and skill. PUBLICATION ON ACCESSORY PRODUCT TO DIRECTINJECT-LC. A new White Paper released by Mettler Toledo with Telescope CTO, Jason Hein, as a co-author, highlights the co-development of a sampling filter accessory to DirectInject-LC™ product, named the EasyFrit. This add-on enhances process understanding for crystallization chemistry and other heterogeneous processes, broadening the platform portfolio and application scope of Telescope's instrument, and thereby enhancing the market appeal of DirectInject-LC™. EasyFrit commercialization is also another example of Telescope's technology leadership and ability to develop advanced analytical tools that are readily deployed in the marketplace TEAM GROWTH BY 33% AND PROGRESS ON COLLABORATION WITH PFIZER FOR SELF-DRIVING LAB ("SDL") DEVELOPMENT. The combination of a close collaboration with Pfizer scientists and a strong financial contribution has enabled excellent progress on this project. Telescope's SDL uses artificial intelligence, advanced process analytical technology, and robotic automation to autonomously perform chemistry research. SDLs can optimize material properties and chemical synthesis methods up to 100x faster than traditional research methods, reducing the time and cost of developing new pharmaceuticals. To support the SDL Project, Telescope has expanded its team by 33% over the past six months, strengthening its expertise in chemistry, chemical engineering, robotics, and AI-driven automation. This growth supports the Company's ability to scale SDL platforms and meet the rising demand for automated research solutions in high-value chemical and pharmaceutical industries. SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME OF BRINE-TO-BATTERY PROGRAM FOR PRODUCTION OF >99% PURE BATTERY RAW MATERIALS. Over the past year, Telescope Innovations' proprietary ReCRFT™ recrystallization technology has produced battery-grade (>99% pure) lithium carbonate from a wide variety of North American lithium-containing brines. Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) eluates were obtained from various producers with lithium brine projects across Canada and the US, including potential suppliers and customers for the eventual commercialization of the ReCRFT™ process. ReCRFT™ collapses the lithium carbonate refining flow sheet, reducing these costs to enable a sustainable, on-shore supply of battery raw materials. CTO HONOURED WITH 2025 R.U LEMIEUX AWARD. Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Professor Jason Hein, has been granted the prestigious 2025 R.U. Lemieux Award by the Chemical Institute of Canada. This award recognizes Professor Hein's contributions to organic chemistry and his pioneering research into reaction mechanisms and process development. His recognition with the R.U. Lemieux Award is a testament to his impact on both academic and industrial chemistry. Dr. Hein continues to lead Telescope's technology development team to enhance advanced analytics, robotics, and artificial intelligence platforms for process chemistry. "This quarter's results reflect disciplined execution of our strategy and the strength of our partnerships," commented Henry Dubina, Telescope CEO. "By advancing our enabling technologies and deepening our industry presence, we're building lasting value in markets where innovation drives demand."
