... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... The algorithm has been successfully applied to both real and simulated astronomical data (Jefferies , 1993; Jefferies 1993) and its ability to accurately preserve photometry in the observed image has been demonstrated. ... In order to investigate the algorithm's performance without the influence of detector and photon noise we took the ``truth'' data set and convolved it with the given PSF to generate a noiseless image. ... The restored object and the two restored PSF's are shown in Fig. ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...
