🪐 The dusty core of the elliptical galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) hides a colossal jet of high-energy particles, launched from a supermassive black hole and stretching over 1 million light-years into intergalactic space. X-ray and radio images reveal this jet carving through the surrounding gas, shaping the galaxy’s strange appearance and fueling vast lobes that glow in the cosmic void. ✨ #CentaurusA⚡#blackhole⚡#galaxy 👉subscribe Universe Mysteries

🪐 Light travels faster than anything else in the universe—at a speed of 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum—so a radio signal sent from Earth would reach the Moon in just over a second. The jets ejected by the supermassive black hole in galaxy Centaurus A shoot out at speeds close to this ultimate limit, but nothing with mass can ever actually reach the full speed of light. ✨ #speedoflight⚡#spacephysics⚡#centaurusa⚡#nasa⚡#galaxy⚡#stars⚡#astronomy⚡#universe⚡#cosmos⚡#space 👉subscribe Universe Mysteries 👉more Channels ​
