South African telescope captures stunning image of radio galaxy
A stunning new image from the South African MeerKAT telescope captures powerful radio emissions woven through space.
The radio emissions emanate from an enormous rotating black hole that lies at the center of an elliptical galaxy known as IC 4296. Energy released by matter falling into the black hole generates two radio jets of high energy gas on opposite sides of the galaxy — creating what is also known as a double-lobed radio galaxy.
