COSMIC MESSAGE

The center of giant galaxy M87 is a dense, violent place. In this 1994 Hubble Space Telescope photograph, a disk of hot gas orbits at the center of this massive elliptical galaxy. The disk, visible on the lower left, rotates quickly, indicating a very massive central object. The disk's size suggests an extremely high central density, hinting at a black hole.
