This isn’t the first time I’ve seen an astrophysicist refer to a billion years as a short period of time.

Seen by the Fermi LAT telescope.

The new blazars range from redshift 3.3 to 4.31.

That’s well short of the furthest quasars and galactic black holes, which have redshifts up to 7.085, or the most distant gamma ray burster (GRB) with a redshift of 8.2. GRBs are a type of supernova. Blazars are a type of quasar.
