COSMIC MESSAGE

What's happening at the center of this spiral galaxy? M104, also known as the Sombrero Galaxy, has a prominent dust lane and a bright halo of stars and globular clusters. The Sombrero's center glows brightly in both visible light and X-rays. This X-ray emission and the high stellar speeds suggest a black hole lies at its core.
