Chandra X-ray Observatory | Quick Look: NASA's Chandra Notices the Galactic Center is Venting @ChandraXray | Uploaded 5 months ago | Updated 1 day ago
Astronomers have discovered an “exhaust vent” near the Milky Way’s center.
This structure helps funnel hot gas, likely from eruptions from the giant black hole.
Researchers used NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory to identify this vent.
This finding helps us show how the giant black hole interacts with the galaxy we live in.
