An explanation of observed phenomena in AGN is proposed on the basis of the hypothesis about the ejection of compact formations from a “central object” which emits relativistic electrons. In particular, the possible causes of the discrete structure of jets, appearance of “superluminal” velocities and superfast variations of radiation from nuclei in X-ray and optical regions are considered.
