Re: [Utah-astronomy] Black Holes and Active Galaxies
Today's APOD (December 5)is a good example of a galaxy whose central black hole is no doubt sweeping up lots and lots of matter. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap121205.html Imagine if the Milky Way was doing this kind of thing! John R. Peterson
Makes you wonder what our home galaxy would look like if it was imaged by someone using a radio telescope in a galaxy far, far away. ________________________________ From: John R.
