In the recent Sun issue(US version, not UK), they put on pages 4 and 5 a picture of this galaxy, MCG-6-30-15, supposedly taken by the XXM-Newton X-ray telescope.

Anyway, my questions are:

1. Is there such a satellite?

2. Is there such a galaxy?

3. Has there ever been a picture taken of the galaxy MCG-6-30-25?

4. If there is a galaxy known as MCG-6-30-15, does anyone know if it has a black hole at it's center, and if so, how big is it?
