The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) wasn’t the only powerful device with its gaze fixed upon galaxy Messier 87 (M87) in April 2017.<\/p>

While the EHT was focused on the event horizon of the black hole<\/a> at the center of M87, NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory was taking a wider view of the same target — and the image produced through those observations puts the black hole photo into stunning context.<\/p>

The Chandra team provided additional details on the dazzling display of bright particles captured in its black hole companion image in a blog post<\/a> shared on Monday:<\/p>

“While Chandra can’t see the shadow itself, its field of view is much larger than the EHT’s, so Chandra can view the full length of the jet of high-energy particles launched by the intense gravitational and magnetic fields around the black hole. This jet extends more than 1,000 light years from the center of the galaxy.”<\/p>
