Quasar 3C 48

Description
Quasar 3C 48
For several years, astronomers erroneously believed that this object is
simply a peculiar, nearby star that happens to emit radio waves.
Actually, the redshift of this starlike object is so great that, according
to the Hubble law, it must be roughly 4 billion ly away.
