Active galaxy NGC 1068 in the Whale - Active galaxy M77 (NGC 1068) in Cetus...

IMAGE number
PIX4609602
Image title
Active galaxy NGC 1068 in the Whale - Active galaxy M77 (NGC 1068) in Cetus - This active galaxy is the typical example of a galaxy of Seyfert II. M77 (NGC 1068) has an active core and houses a massive black hole. She is the object of intense star formation in her spiral arms. NGC 1068 is around 50 million years of light from Earth. Image obtained with a telescope 61 cm in diameter. Located about 60 million light years from Earth, towards the direction of the constellation named Cetus, is an enormous galaxy, much larger than our own, that is surrounded by a even larger cloud of obscuring dust. M77 (NGC 1068) has a powerful jet pouring copious amounts of material into inter - galactic space at enormous speed. This galaxy is a seyfert II type with an active nucleus. It is now believed that the source of this conmotion is a super - massive black hole, ten million times more massive than our Sun, in the process of absorbing material that has ventured too close. Image taken with a 24 - inch telescope
