After I read Joe’s blog I went over and read Sheena’s. In reading her article on ‘Light from the darkness’ I realized I have missed a step (or 10) along the way in my understanding of black holes.

So, how do we get these radio jets escaping from a black hole as depicted in the galaxy Centaurus A? Jim
