... The color composite image of Centaurus A reveals the lobes and jets emanating from the active galaxy?s central black hole. ... Astronomers have a new insight into the active galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128), as the jets and lobes emanating from the central black hole have been imaged at submillimetre wavelengths for the first time. ... Centaurus A hosts a very active and highly luminous central region, caused by the presence of a supermassive black hole is the source of strong radio and X-ray emission....

... Tonight's Sky . ... NASA satellite reveals active galaxies are different near and far . ... An ongoing X-ray survey undertaken by NASA's Swift spacecraft is revealing differences between nearby active galaxies and those located about halfway across the universe. ... Nearly a decade ago, surveys with NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory and the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton showed that active galaxies some 7 billion light-years away were mostly massive "red and dead" galaxies in normal environments....
