Journal: Space Telescope Science Institute Newsletter, 12, 1-3 (May 1995). postscript file pdf file This article describes the motivation for imaging nearby luminous quasars in order to discover what “turns on” a quasar and produces their enormous energy output. The observational program described here has now been completed and fully analyzed; the results are presented in the paper “Hubble Space Telescope Images of a Sample of Twenty Nearby Luminous Quasars,”ApJ, 479, 642-658 (April 20, 1997) [also available from my home page under Recent Preprints and Reprints].
