Well, would we even see them if they weren’t? (Serious question).
I’m not an astronomy expert, but I believe that the effect of the jets can be seen distorting dust clouds surrounding such objects.
Ah, that makes sense
If the angle of the jet is more then a little off axis the jet may still visible if it is sufficiently powerful and it passes through a scattering medium (interstellar dust?) the wiki page for blazars shows just such an example in the M87 galaxy
They’re pointing directly at the American Gladiator stadium
Where does it need to be pointed to be called a ‘Tie and Blazar”?
aimed at Bedford, NY you can see the Chevy Blazar
