Black hole jet may be stirring gas cloud containing early 'red potato'

Black hole jet may be stirring gas cloud containing early ‘red potato’ galaxy A black hole may be stirring a "pot" of gas containing a neighboring galaxy in the early universe, according to a new study published in Astronomy & Astrophysics that used observations from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. The galaxy slowly being "cooked" is named MQN01 J004131.9-493704, but astronomers have nicknamed it the "red potato" because of its appearance in images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.
