Jet of the Galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) seen in X-rays - Galaxy Centaurus A...

IMAGE number
PIX4612176
Image title
Jet of the Galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) seen in X-rays - Galaxy Centaurus A X - ray jet - View in false colours of a 30 000-year long jet - light that escapes from the nucleus of the Galaxy Centaurus A where a massive black hole is suspected. The galaxy NGC 5128 is located about 13 million light years away from Earth. Image obtained by the Chandra Space Telescope in May 2000. Chandra space telescope detects a jet emanating from the NGC 5128 core and numerous point - like X - ray sources, all bathed in diffuse X - rays produced by several - million - degree gas that fills the galaxy. It is believed that most of these sources are X - ray binaries in which a neutron star or stellar - sized black hole is accreting matter from a nearby companion star. The Cen A image was created from Chandra observations taken on December 5, 1999 and May 17, 2000
