Two phases of activity?

• by Ptd

  It looks to me like there might be two phases of activity here, the first has some lateral displacement, the newer stronger one doesn't, am I reading this image correctly? And if so what could cause that?

  Hi @Ptd,
  It is possible that this radio galaxy is experience multiple episodes, the orientation of the lobes do look bent so this would be an interesting candidate for deeper observations.
