I think that pic encompasses the whole of the M87 galaxy -- the bright tail sprouting rightwards from the core matches pretty well with the central jet in visible light pics I've seen. Also, the above image is in the X-ray spectrum.

 

Ok... so that is all of M87? Ok... that kinda makes sense, but also seems small... maybe because we are only seeing X-ray sources.

 

Thanks.

With everything we learn, new mysteries will be found. And I love that. On the one hand, it reminds us how little we truly understand. On the other, that reminder spurs us to keep striving to discover.
