Two galactic centers

[Christian G.]

I'm posting two images I like to look at side by side, the top one is the center of M100 (provided by AVAO on this site) and the other is the Circinus galaxy, both show lots of activity, with starburst rings around a nucleus itself active, and also because, well, I simply find they look good together!

They look nice together, Christian!

Indeed, the centers of M100 and the Circinus galaxy resemble each other. But the center of the Circinus galaxy appears to be even more active - that purple stuff looks like a jet coming out of the galactic center!

I like the Circinus galaxy too. But something a lot invasive squid there
