Study says massive 'bubbles' in space might share origins

Supermassive “bubbles” in space might have been created by a single event originating at the black hole near the center of our galaxy, a Taiwanese researcher said on Thursday.
The successful simulation of a theoretical model lent credence to the hypothesis that Fermi “bubbles,” as well as the microwave haze, were the result of a single jet event from the central black hole, said Karen Yang (揚湘怡), an associate professor in National Tsing Hua University’s Institute of Astronomy.
The theoretical model would extend understanding of activity at the center of the Milky Way and the correlation of supermassive black hole and galaxy
