Researchers in Science have combined observations at multiple wavelengths to investigate different components of a nearby galaxy with a low-power active galactic nucleus (AGN). They identified an outflow of ionized gas and showed that it is driven by a jet from the AGN. The jet undergoes precession, producing a biconical outflow of gas. Learn more: scim.ag/4r3VD6H
