Four singles, a pair by junior first baseman Erik Binkowski and one apiece by Carmack and senior catcher Jason Keck, was all Harvard could string together in its worst offensive performance of the season--its first shutout since the season opener at Charleston Southern...
...speck of light that he had found in the constellation Serpens was what he had suspected it was all along--a "sub-sub-subspecies" of quasar, a bright object energized by a black hole in its center 8 billion light-years away. That became clear when astronomers at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii eyed Djorgovski's puzzle with infrared detectors. "A lot of noise over relatively little," he admitted--though he did see some good to the hoopla: it shows what a "fun science" astronomy...
...guess about what message it might convey. Stymied at every turn, Djorgovski is pinning his hopes on investigating the object's invisible infrared emissions, which have wavelengths slightly longer than the red light at one end of the visible spectrum. Within the next few weeks, astronomers at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii will train a telescope equipped with an experimental infrared spectrograph on the quarry. What it captures could be revealing. "Our hope," says Djorgovski, "is that by seeing the longer wavelengths on the spectrum, we might actually notice a pattern that is familiar...
