This new NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows ghostly green filaments, lying within galaxy 2MASX J15100402+0740370. This filament was illuminated by a blast of radiation from a quasar - a very luminous and compact region that surrounds the supermassive black hole at the centre of its host galaxy.
