Cygnus A is a powerful radio galaxy located about 750 million light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. It is one of the strongest sources of radio waves in the sky and is classified as a type of active galactic nucleus, where a supermassive black hole at its center consumes surrounding material. The galaxy is notable for its large jets of particles that extend far beyond its host galaxy, emitting intense radiation. Cygnus A was first discovered in the 1950s and has since been studied extensively, providing valuable insights into the behavior of black holes and the dynamics of galaxies.
