New radio galaxy discovered using LOw-Frequency ARray

Astronomers have discovered a new radio galaxy, J0011+3217, using LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR). The galaxy reveals peculiar features, including a one-sided secondary lobe. Radio galaxies emit vast amounts of radio waves from their cores, where black holes produce high-energy jets. Typical radio galaxies feature lobes, jets, hotspots, and a core during active phase, lasting up to 100 million years.
