cafuego 🔭🤦🏼♂️Centaurus A
A relatively nearby galaxy, which is visible as a smudge in binoculars if you know where to look.
In radio light, it is the brightest thing in the sky, screaming static at us. The accretion disk around its central black hole is shooting out jets of super hot gas, which are radio-loud. I don’t have enough data in this set of images to make those jets visible. That’s on the todo list :-)
This is three hours of data during a new Moon, when the sky was nice and dark.
