Well, this is excellent!
The 'Earth-sized' @ehtelescope (which caught the 1st supermassive black hole image of M87) has looked into the heart of the Quasar 3C 279 and found a surprising perpendicular structure in the jet!

And check it out ... 2 days ago, @Xavi_Bros imaged two Quasars, including 3C 279 from Barcelona
Some nice contrast range right there .... small telescope catches impossibly distant point of light. Big telescope (array) catches impossibly small detail. https://twitter.com/Xavi_Bros/status/1246315625305251846

Last tweet on this thread, cause I should be going to bed but this is kinda going to keep my brain up ...
Check out how the detail gets better from VLBA > GMVA > EHT and how the observations create the optical illusion that jets moving > speed of light! https://twitter.com/TheNRAO/status/1247513969000091650
