In these Hubble photos, the core of M87 is located at lower left in the images. HST-1 is the bright blob at center. The glowing material at far right is part of a stream of particles in the jet that speed up and glow in the ultraviolet. The photos show show the jet growing brighter over a seven-year period.

Astronomy sometimes depresses me, because I know that before the ultra-light speed travel or teleportation or beaming or whatever the hell it is gets developed so that we can actually travel to some of these fascinating places in this galaxy, I’ll have long ago passed through the intestinal tract of the local worm population.
