3C 296; z=0.025

3C 296 is hosted by an extremely boxy elliptical galaxy. It has a double lobed jet with clear radio emission along the jet axis (FR I). The WFPC2 image [Martel et al.1999] shows a truncated edge-on disk embedded in the galaxy, similar to that seen in NGC 4261. The disk is aligned with the major axis of the elliptical galaxy, with the jet perpendicular to the disk. The nucleus is seen in both WFPC2 image (though faint) and in the NICMOS image (brighter). X-ray and radio observations of this galaxy are discussed in [Hardcastle et al.2005].
