Description
Centaurus A:: A lenticular galaxy about 11 million light-years away in the constellation Centaurus. The galaxy is also the fifth brightest in the sky, making it an ideal amateur astronomy target, although the galaxy is only visible from low northern latitudes and the southern hemisphere. A relativistic jet which extracts energy from the vicinity of what is believed to be a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy is responsible for emissions in the X-ray and radio wavelengths. By taking radio observations of the jet separated by a decade, astronomers have determined that the inner parts of the jet are moving at about one half of the speed of light. As observed in other starburst galaxies, a collision is responsible for the intense burst of star formation. It has been confirmed that Centaurus A is going through a galaxy collision by devouring a spiral galaxy.

A single stunning 23mm capri blue Swarovski crystal wing pendant dangles below an intricate pendant with four retaining rings wired together using 28ga silver plated wire... on either side small 8mm crystal ab teardrops dangle and top center a 4mm capri blue Swarovski crystal bicone as the finishing touch.
