Milky Way's Core Source of Monster Energy Outflows

Milky Way's Core Source of Monster Energy Outflows
Parkes Observatory in Australia recorded image (left) of Milky Way's Galactic Center, showing extreme outflows of charged particles as reported by The Daily Galaxy. These outflows of charged particles more powerful than exploding stars stretch 50,000 light years above and below galactic plane.  Outflows are believed to play role in how our galaxy generates its magnetic field. The Milky Way stretches 100,000 light years across and our solar system resides 30,000 light years from its center on the galactic plane.
