Spiral galaxies like our Milky Way (a barred spiral galaxy) are nothing special--in fact, they're the most common type of galaxy. But astronomers are buzzing about the recent discovery of a very unusual spiral galaxy that sports big jets of subatomic particles that stream outward at nearly the speed of light. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/12/04/spiral-galaxy-jets-astronomers_n_6259024.html I 1st read about it here, http://www.news.com.au/technology/science/the-strange-galaxy-far-far-away-that-has-astronomers-baffled/story-fnjwlcze-1227145808185. Cheers. |
