A rare example of three active galactic nuclei in three merging galaxies has been discovered using two radio telescopes: the VLA and the VLBA. The triple system is cataloged as J1218/1219+1035. This targeted study, conducted by a team of researchers at various radio frequencies, has identified only the third case of a triple active galactic nucleus, the first confirmed through radio observations.

@setiinstitute is this Galaxy similar to our, with its new found barred structure? Will the Milky Way have a similar ring around its monstrous SMBH core?

This is the Million Earth star system, and you can see how useful Super Massive Black Holes can be.
I would imagine the local 'gods' would be fighting over our one at the centre of the Milky Way....

An article published in the journal Nature Astronomy reports the results of a study of seven galaxy clusters that contain various supermassive black holes that offers evidence that outbursts generated at these black holes help cool the gas they feed on. Outbursts in the form of jets from the supermassive black holes cool the gas by forming thin filaments. Some gas will eventually flow back toward those black holes, triggering more outbursts,

An article published in "The Astrophysical Journal" reports the results of X-ray observations of the jets emitted by the supermassive black hole at the center of the Centaurus A galaxy. A team of researchers used NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory to find a V-shaped structure that indicates that one of the jets hit something whose nature is uncertain.

An article published in "The Astrophysical Journal" reports the results of a study of primordial galaxies that seemed too massive for their age, concluding that it was actually the light generated by the activity of their supermassive black holes that created a wrong impression.

A new image captured by the James Webb Space Telescope depicts the quasar cataloged as RX J1131-1231, or simply RX J1131. About six billion light-years away from Earth, it's visible in three different copies, recognizable in the upper part of the bright ring in the center of the image, due to a gravitational lensing effect generated by a galaxy between it and Earth.

An article published in the journal "The Astrophysical Journal Letters" reports the discovery of the most distant pair of merging quasars known. A team of researchers combined observations from the Subaru Telescope with the Gemini North Telescope to find traces of this pair of quasars that we see as they were about 900 million years after the Big Bang.

An article published in "The Astrophysical Journal" reports the results of observations of primordial quasars that indicate that supermassive black holes form from "seeds" that are very massive and grow quickly. A team of researchers used observations conducted with the James Webb Space Telescope as part of the EIGER project to detect the faint light of the stars surrounding three of those quasars.
