Summary
| Description |
What's going on at the center of NGC 5792? A supermassive black hole, maybe. What's up with that dust? Is it really flared out like that, or is this a line of sight trick? And, if it is flared, what's causing it? I'm not really sure. Data from the following proposal were used to create this image: Addressing a Bias in the Galaxies with Black Hole Mass Measurements Red: WFC3/IR F160W (50% opacity) Orange: WFC3/UVIS F814W Blue: WFC3/UVIS F475W North is 32.88° counter-clockwise from up. |
