Mrk 231 galactic black hole, artwork C015 / 0792
Mrk 231 galactic black hole. Artwork of the environment around the supermassive black hole at the centre of the galaxy Markarian 231. As well as the narrow polar jets, the energy of this black hole is powering the broader outflow shown at top. A similar broad outflow is shown below and obscured by the accretion disc. The total amount of material in these broad flows is at least 400 times the mass of the Sun per year. Markarian 231 (UGC 8058) is a Type-1 Seyfert galaxy. It is around 600 million light years from Earth, in the constellation of Ursa Major. This research, by the Gemini Observatory, was published in 2011

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork titled "Mrk 231 Galactic Black Hole, Artwork C015/0792". The image beautifully depicts the environment surrounding a supermassive black hole situated at the heart of the Markarian 231 galaxy. Alongside the narrow polar jets, we witness an awe-inspiring display of energy emanating from this celestial entity, powering a broader outflow visible at its peak. The artwork also reveals another broad outflow beneath, partially obscured by an accretion disc. Astonishingly, these expansive flows contain a staggering amount of material equivalent to at least 400 times the mass of our Sun per year. Markarian 231 (UGC 8058) is classified as a Type-1 Seyfert galaxy and resides approximately 600 million light years away in Ursa Major constellation. Published in 2011 by Gemini Observatory, this research offers profound insights into astrophysics and unveils the immense power exerted by gravitational forces within our universe. The illustration portrays a high-energy region with glowing and radiating characteristics that captivate astronomers worldwide. Through this remarkable piece of artistry, we gain glimpses into galactic centers where collapsed stars give rise to supermassive black holes capable of shaping their surroundings through intense accretion processes. This print serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of unraveling cosmic mysteries while showcasing the boundless beauty found within our vast cosmos.
