Astronomers have confirmed the existence of a close quasar pair located in merging galaxies, a significant finding in the study of the early universe.
This discovery was made using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which observed the quasars at a notable redshift.
The galaxies housing these quasars are believed to have existed when the universe was still in its infancy, less than a billion years old.
