- This identification was confirmed by 1953 - odd wording. You mean "The soruce was confirmed as coming from M87" (?)
- The only known visual observation of the jet was by Russian-American astronomer Otto Struve using the 254 cm (100 in) Hooker telescope - how/why?
- and may indicate that the black hole has been accelerated by the jet - I don't follow - you mean "moved" or "displeced" or ..what?
- The Virgo Cluster section could be expanded a little - M87's role in it, closest neighbours etc.
