Copyright: ESA/AOES Medialab

The image shows an artist's impression of a galaxy that is releasing material via two strongly collimated jets (shown in red/orange) as well as via wide-angle outflows (shown in gray/blue). Both jets and outflows are being driven by the black hole located at the galaxy's centre.
