Bar feature

  What does a bar feature suggest? Could this be energy spewing for the black hole?

  While most galaxies have a black hole, the bar is definitely not 'made' by the black hole.

  Here's the wiki page for barred galaxies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barred_spiral_galaxy

  Hope this helps and happy hunting !
