Black Hole, Porphyrion
Porphyrion: The 23 Million Light-Year Black Hole Jet Redefining Cosmic Evolution
In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified the longest pair of black hole jets ever observed, stretching an astonishing 23 million light-years. This monumental finding, reported in the journal Nature on September 18,
Astronomers just detected the biggest black hole jets ever seen—and named them Porphyrion
The largest known black hole jets, 23 million light years across, have been discovered in the distant universe. This pair of particle beams launched by a supermassive black hole is over a hundred times larger than our galaxy,
Biggest black hole jets ever seen span 140 Milky Way galaxies

The Biggest Black Hole Jets Ever Seen Are 140 Milky Ways Long
At 23 million light-years long, the black hole jets are the largest yet seen. How big is 23 million light-years, you ask? It’s the equivalent of 140 Milky Ways lined up end-to-end. The study describing the jet megastructure, dubbed Porphyrion after a mythological Greek giant, is published today in Nature.

Beyond Imagination: 140 Milky Ways Spanned by Record-Breaking Black Hole Jets
Astronomers have identified the largest black hole jet structure known, named Porphyrion, stretching 23 million light-years across, akin to 140 Milky Way galaxies aligned. This discovery, emerging from a galaxy about 10 times the mass of our Milky Way,
Astronomers Dive Deep into the Enigma of the Universe's Largest Black Hole Jet
Scientists have discovered the largest known black hole jet, named Porphyrion, stretching 23 million light years across. This colossal jet raises intriguing questions about its perfectly straight appearance and consistent power over billions of years.
Biggest ever black hole jets detected by astronomers, named Porphyrion
The largest known black hole jets, 23 million light years across, have been discovered in the distant universe. This pair of particle beams launched by a supermassive black hole is over a hundred times larger than our galaxy, the Milky Way.
Biggest black hole jets ever seen are as long as 140 Milky Ways
The largest-ever black hole jets ever seen hint that these cosmic monsters may play an even more significant role in shaping galaxies than previously thought.
