Casey Courey-Pickering “Hero” — Cygnus A II (aerosol and diamond dust on canvas, 2021)
A supermassive black hole at the center of the Cygnus A galaxy is rapidly growing as it pulls material swirling around it into its gravitational grasp. During this process, some of this material is redirected away from the black hole in the form of jets of particles and electromagnetic energy. The Cygnus A jets extend outward more than 300,000 light years in each direction. Such jets can significantly affect how a galaxy and its surroundings evolve. This multiwavelength image is a combination of X-ray, radio, and optical light.

Dance and fusion between my Freesia and @chipper-smol-dragon-tamer 's Cygnus A! Their name is Cereus and they are very quiet and mysterious. They like dancing and giving Trotter flowers
