Quasar J0742+2704 (center) became a topic of interest for astronomers in 2020 after it was discovered to have a new jet emanating from the disk around its supermassive black hole. The discovery was made using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) radio observatory. Follow-up observations were subsequently made with other observatories, with the aim of determining the properties of the galaxy and understanding what might have powered the jet. **Credit:** NASA, ESA, Kristina Nyland (US Naval Research Laboratory); Image processing: Joseph DePascala (STScI).

The Hubble Space Telescope has revealed a quasar inhabiting a spiral galaxy – a surprising discovery that challenges existing understanding of the structure of quasars and the origin of their jets of matter.
The European Space Agency's (ESA) groundbreaking Prova-3 mission has successfully begun its formation flight phase, with two satellites now maintaining a precise 150-metre separation in orbit. This precision will enable the creation of artificial solar eclipses, providing unprecedented views of the Sun's corona. Credit: ESA-P. Carril
