For the first time, VLBI images have been obtained of the archetypal radio galaxy Cygnus A at the frequency of 86 GHz. The high spatial resolution gives insight into the transverse width profile at the onset of the two-sided flow. The publication from an MPIfR research team led by Biagina Boccardi appears as highlight in the present issue of the research journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics": A&A 588, L9 (2016).
