    NASA’s WISE, Fermi missions reveal a surprising Blazar connection

    August 26, 2016, Categories  Astronomy/Space

    Black-hole-powered galaxies called blazars are the most common sources detected by NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. As matter falls toward the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center, some of it is accelerated outward at nearly the speed of light along jets pointed in opposite directions. When one of the jets happens to be aimed in the direction of Earth, as illustrated here, the galaxy appears especially bright and is classified as a blazar. Credit: M. Weiss/CfA

    Astronomers studying distant galaxies powered by monster black holes have uncovered an unexpected link between 2 very different wavelengths of the light they emit, the mid-infrared and gamma rays...
