IMAGE number

Image title
Elliptical Galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) - The galaxy Centaurus A - The galaxy NGC 5128 is located about 13 million light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of Centaurus. This giant galaxy is a powerful radio source known as Centaurus A. The central dark band would be the rest of dust in a spiral galaxy smaller than the giant galaxy would have cannibalized. Centaurus A is an active galaxy whose energy comes from a supermassive black hole. Image made with an amateur instrument, a 130 mm bezel. Designated as radio source Centaurus A, NGC 5128 is one of the most peculiar galaxies in the sky. It is bisected by a dark lane that is considered the dust remnant of a smaller spiral galaxy that was cannibalized by the larger elliptical galaxy. The collision resulted in a burst of star formation. A gigantic black hole equivalent to one billion solar masses resides inside NGC 5128
