Amazing! Broke my brain I don't understand how the gas continues to rotate opposite but very cool thanks for sharing the video!

#squared-core in this otherwise round spiral. Also, the center seems almost solid. Anybody got any bright ideas?

NGC 4826 or Messier 64 has a conspicuous dust lane to the northeast of the nucleus and is thus called 'Black-Eye Galaxy'.

sembra ci siano molti anelli ma quel "core" sembra nascondere un buco nero supermassicio
