... August 24, 1996 . Why is QSO 1229+204 so Bright? Credit: J. Hutchings ( DAO ), NASA . Explanation: What causes the center of this barred spiral galaxy to light up brighter than almost anything in the universe? ... Not only was QSO 1229+204 at the core of an unusual barred spiral galaxy , but this galaxy was in the process of colliding with a dwarf galaxy . Gas from this collision quite possibly fuels a supermassive black hole causing QSO 1229+204 to shine so brightly. ... About APOD | ...

... 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. ...

In 1974 astronomers discovered a bright radio source at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius. It was an unknown quantity then, but astronomers now know that the object is a supermassive black hole causing a maelstrom of activity at the galactic center. ...

... According to the most popular cosmological paradigm, the greater part of the galaxy mass is accumulated in the dark matter halo. ... The polar ring galaxies (PRGs) reveal external rings or disks of gas, dust and stars rotating in a plane roughly perpendicular to the disk of the central galaxy. ... The shape of the dark halo in the model was chosen so as to achieve the best fit to the observed rotation of both galaxies themselves and their polar rings. ... The SPRC-7 galaxy. ...
