The very bright center of a distant galaxy
Real World Example
Imagine trying to find your car in a crowded parking lot at night, with only one streetlight illuminating the area. Just as that single streetlight stands out brightly and helps you navigate the darkness, a quasar acts as an incredibly bright beacon within a distant galaxy, often outshining all the stars in that galaxy combined. In this analogy, the parking lot is the galaxy, the scattered cars are the stars, and the streetlight is the quasar, guiding your attention with its intense luminosity amidst the vast, dark expanse.
