In December 2019, researchers at the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) identified unusual nuclear variability in an early-type galaxy, SDSS J133519.91+072807.4.

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) represent some of the most energetic phenomena in the cosmos. Their understanding is pivotal for astronomers, as they shed light on the dynamics at play in distant galaxies.

The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) continues to identify notable targets as a team of researchers present their discovery of a rather curious one.

Earlier this year, on the 2nd of February 2022, the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) identified a flash within the optical waveband, with an apparent magnitude of ~20.

… and brings to light the supermassive black hole hiding inside that dust torus.
