    Very cool #S-shaped jet.

    It could be due to the dynamics and the interaction with the intragroup medium. Or it could have a precessing black hole...

    No doubt that the host is z_sp 0.069 SDSS J135142.13+555943.1, despite the small #opticalradiooffset; a very cool system!

    Perhaps the odd morphology is partly due to a late-stage merger?
