This looks to me as a spiral galaxy with a black hole at the center that heats up the gas int the hole galaxy.Am i correct ?The blob on the right appears to me as if it is outside the galaxy.Is this true?

Hi @adi dinu, if you click onto the SDSS link at the bottom of the subject, you can see that while the radio morphology is similar to a spiral, it's actually an S-shaped radio emission coming from an elliptical galaxy. The blob on the right is outside the galaxy but likely to be connected to the extended radio emission emanating from this elliptical galaxy.
