Scientists have discovered the largest and most distant reservoir of water ever detected, located around a quasar called APM 08279+5255. This quasar houses a supermassive black hole and emits energy equivalent to a thousand trillion suns. The colossal body of water surpasses the combined volume of all water on Earth by 140 trillion times. Prior to this discovery, water vapor had not been observed in the early universe, making it a milestone in astronomical understanding. The construction of the 25-meter telescope, FYST, in the Atacama Desert has been temporarily halted due to insufficient funding.
