A black background of space, sprinkled with thousands of galaxies of all shapes and sizes. In the middle of the picture is an inset box showing a closeup of a pair of galaxies from the background. The larger galaxy is spiral-shaped. The other is spindle-shaped because the galaxy is seen edge-on. The smaller galaxy has a line that points to the words “supermassive black hole” that connects to a bright white spot in the middle of it.
