An international team of astrophysicists has identified the location where powerful and highly energetic X-rays are being shot out into space from inside a region in space shaped like a giant aquatic mammal called a manatee. They found the spectrum of the object at this location shows there is a "non-classical acceleration process" where particles are being injected and re-accelerated in immensely powerful jets of energy emitted by a black hole. But don't worry about it irradiating us, since it's more than 100,000,000,000,000,000 kilometers away from us.
