These are two images of the inner radio lobes, the lower one a "close
up" of the upper one. Click on either picture for a larger version
(which may take awhile!). The inner lobes extend about 5 kpc, end to
end. There is no visible sign of a counter-jet, but the apparent
flows seen in the halo suggests that it exists but is very faint. We
do not yet know in detail how the flow connects from these inner lobes
to the larger halo.
