Extract

Until early in 1968 radio sources were believed to be relatively constant and slowly evolving objects. Sporadic intensity variations had been found at high frequencies in some quasars but, except for the Sun and some flare stars which exhibited occasional bursts of radiation, the time scale of changing emission appeared to be very long.
