AVO First Science Press Release
May 28, 2004. The first major discovery to
be made with the Virtual Observatory was announced today to the press. The
AVO science team discovered 31 previously undetected powerful supermassive
black holes in the so-called GOODS (Great Observatories

UVES Investigates the Environment of a Very Remote Galaxy
11 March, 2002. Observations with ESO's Very
Large Telescope (VLT) have enabled an international group of astronomers to
study in unprecedented detail the surroundings of a very remote galaxy, almost
12 billion light-years distant. The extremely detailed UVES spectrum of
MS 1512-cB58 displays numerous signatures (absorption lines) of intergalactic
gas clouds along the line-of-sight . An excess of material near MS 1512-cB58
was found, possible evidence of a young supercluster of galaxies, already
at this very early epoch.
