Bending the Bridge Between Two Galaxy Clusters
-
Just got from weekly article NASA TV
Several hundred million years ago, two galaxy clusters collided and then passed through each other. This mighty event released a flood of hot gas from each galaxy cluster that formed an unusual bridge between the two objects. This bridge is now being pummeled by particles driven away from a supermassive black hole.

@Gia28 do you want to read the full article?

@Bill-Dhivid It’s hard to fathom how galaxies emerges and change. I can’t imagine a galaxy inside my head. So, I think I have to settle with pictures and some computer simulations. The bend is the effects of a jet shooting away from a supermassive black hole. I wonder what energy that actually powers the jet.

@Bill-Dhivid Mass is related to the rotational speed.. and all the matter in the universe is expected to interact gravitationally... I still have to understand how it really works
-
@kaia_ masses exert gravitational forces. Two masses interact with that force, rotation comes afterwards. It's a very strong forces that helps balancing the planets and their movements. Not sure about other reasons if it might be there.

@Gia28 ok here

This is interesting.

what is a radio lobe?

@mikeJB said in Bending the Bridge Between Two Galaxy Clusters:
what is a radio lobe
Galaxies kind of hyperbole in the shape hence has two ends. They release energy from the two regions, these are radio energies.
-
@kaia_ masses inside the galaxy and forces of interaction them.
-
@Bill-Dhivid sure, thanks.

@Bill-Dhivid thanks
