NGC 1275 / C24 Perseus A Galaxy - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. Active elliptical galaxy, also called Perseus A, at the heart of the Perseus Cluster. It features a supermassive black hole fueling powerful radio jets and gas filaments.
NGC 1275 / C24 Perseus A Galaxy - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. It features delicate cool gas filaments up to 20,000 light-years long, suspended by strong magnetic fields against the surrounding 100 million-degree hot gas.
Next on the observation list, here is #NGC1275 / #C24 #PerseusAGalaxy. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur
A stunning Hubble Space Telescope image of NGC 1275, the dominant galaxy in the Perseus Cluster. This color composite reveals vibrant filaments of glowing gas, up to 20,000 light-years long, surrounding a central supermassive black hole. These filaments, surprisingly stable despite galactic collisions, are believed to be held together by powerful magnetic fields. NGC 1275, also known as Perseus A, is approximately 230 million light-years away and spans over 100,000 light-years.

Chandra X-ray Observatory image of the Perseus galaxy cluster, showcasing the cannibal galaxy Perseus A (NGC 1275) and its supermassive black hole. Red, green, and blue represent low, medium, and high-energy X-rays. Notice the magnetic bubbles and the x-ray shadow of a smaller galaxy falling into Perseus A. The cluster is 320 million light-years away.
