Centaurus A is a galaxy that is ten times massive than our galaxy. It is located approximately 12 million light years away from us. At the center of it is a supermassive black hole that is actively accreting matter emitting very powerful radiation, also known as an “Active Galactic Nuclei” or AGN

This image shows a “stellar stream” ✨. A stellar stream is created when a group of stars is pulled apart as they travel around a galaxy 🌌. These objects give a glimpse into the past showing how galaxies evolve and how gravity shapes the universe. #stellarstreams #astronomy #cosmos #galaxies #space
