The astronomers based their calculation on measurements of the extragalactic background light (EBL), a cosmic fog of radiation that has been
The latest observations, collected over nine years by Nasa’s Fermi space telescope, use the light from blazars—super—massive black holes that emit powerful jets of gamma rays—as beacons (信号灯) to
One added complication was that, while starlight is accumulating over time, the cosmic fog is simultaneously being diluted as the universe
