Jets, Black Hole
Largest Black Hole Jets Ever Seen Create a Galactic Structure That Will Blow Your Mind
"If we shrink the jets to the size of the Earth and the black hole accordingly, the black hole would have the size of 0.2 millimeters: the size of an amoeba or a mite on your skin. So these giant jets are incredible: they are as if a single amoeba was able to generate a powerful fountain of energy the size of the entire Earth!"
Black Hole Blasts 23 Million Light-Years Long Plasma Jets
Researchers have discovered the largest black hole plasma jets ever in a galaxy almost 7 billion light years away from Earth.

"The Milky Way would be a little dot in these two giant eruptions."
Scientists detect longest pair of jets streaming from a supermassive black hole
Scientists have discovered the longest pair of jets streaming from a black hole in a distant galaxy. Black holes eat most space debris that falls their way.
Meet Porphyrion, the largest pair of black hole jets ever seen
The two plasma fountains, spanning 23 million light-years, could shape cosmic structures far beyond their home galaxy.
Supermassive black hole blows galactic gas at 2,235,600 mph; cuts off star power
The mass of gas being expelled from 'Pablo's Galaxy' is greater than the amount needed for star formation, effectively starving the galaxy.

Biggest black hole jets ever seen span 140 Milky Way galaxies
An artist's illustration of the longest black hole jet system ever observed. Nicknamed Porphyrion after a mythological Greek giant, these jets span roughly 7 megaparsecs, or 23 million light- years. That is equivalent to lining up 140 Milky Way galaxies back-to-back.
