Nature Editorial Summary 21 December 2017

Blazars are a particular kind of very variable quasar, viewed from Earth down the axis of a relativistic jet — a beam of accelerated ionized matter. One possible explanation for the extreme variability in radiation flux from blazars is changes in the viewing angle.
