Black Hole in the "Heart" of M 87
|
The jets emanating from a famous Black Hole are cruising along at about 99% the speed of light, according to observations from NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory.
Researchers spotted the speedy jets emanating from a Black Hole in the galaxy Messier 87 — the same Black Hole that was imaged directly for the first time by the Event Horizon Telescope.
In this wide-field image of Messier 87 from the Chandra X-ray Observatory, the white box indicates the approximate location of the black hole's jet.
