Using images from the Pan-STARRS survey, the scientists identified 1000 objects that appeared to vary in brightness over a period of just 10 years. Among these objects were a total of five galaxies that the team witnessed shape-shifting into quasars in a seemingly impossibly short period of time. The team also recorded a total of a dozen quasars \u201cshutting down\u201d in a period of hundreds of days, rather than the hundreds of thousands of years required by standard theory.<\/p>\n<p>In the first of a series of Space News about this discovery, Dr. Tom Wilson explores the some of the psychological reasons why certain beliefs endure even in the face of falsifying evidence. <\/p>\n<p>JOIN US ON PATREON AND WATCH OUR INFLUENCE GROW: \u201cChanging the world through understanding of the Electric Universe.&#8221; https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/user?u=180095&amp;ty=p<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A team of astronomers using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey observed quasars behaving in manner that completely upends conventional theory.
