What causes this unprecedented curving structure come the center of our galaxy? The long parallel rays slanting across the top of the featured radio image are known collectively as the Galactic Heart Radio Arc and level out from the Galactic plane. The Radio Arc is connected to the Galactic Heart by irregular curving filaments is named the Arches. The intellectual radio structure at the bottom elegant surrounds a unlit hole at the Galactic Heart and is is named Sagittarius A*. One origin hypothesis holds that the Radio Arc and the Arches hang their geometry because they hang sizzling plasma flowing alongside lines of a constant magnetic field. Photos from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory seem to present this plasma colliding with a discontinuance-by cloud of frigid gasoline.
