Data from a now-defunct satellite is providing new insights into the complex tug-of-war between galaxies, the hot plasma that surrounds them, and the giant black holes that lurk in their centers.

But data obtained during those few weeks was enough to paint a startling new picture of the dynamic forces at work within galaxies.
