A black hole has a powerful gravitational field. First image of Sagittarius A (or Sgr A for short), the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. If it were not for the effect that black holes have on the objects around them, we would be unable to detect them. There are few things in our universe as perplexing, complicated, and downright terrifying as a black hole. Black holes are extremely compact space objects that were once massive stars which collapsed inward due to the force of their own gravity. More than three years after the release of the first-ever image of a black hole, scientists from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) shared an image of Sagitta. The photo shows the supermassive black hole at the center of a neighboring galaxy known as Messier 87. NASA Releases First REAL Image Of A Black Hole. The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) project took the famous pic.
#BLACK HOLE REAL IMAGE MOVIE#
"This one is so precious, so beautiful, because it is real." The image of a black hole in the 2014 movie Interstellar looks remarkably different than the one we saw in 2019 when scientists published the first-ever real black hole photo. Against a bright backdrop, such as this disk, a black hole appears to cast a shadow. "I have seen many beautiful, detailed images of black holes - but all were just simulations," he added. The iconic 2019 image of M87, a solar system-size black hole in the center of the Virgo galaxy cluster, was made by pooling radio light that had traveled to us across 53 million light-years of space. "For 25 years this was always a dream, a fiction, an expectation," Heino Falcke, an astronomer at Radboud University in the Netherlands and one of the EHT scientists, told NBC News MACH in an email. "This is the strongest evidence that we have to date for the existence of black holes."

The first movie star will be the black hole in M87, an elliptical galaxy at the heart of the Virgo. "Here it is," Sheperd Doeleman, a Harvard astronomer and project director of the EHT, said as he revealed the image at the Washington briefing. Milky Way vs M87: Event Horizon Telescope photos show 2 very different monster black holes. The photo is the product of observations made in April 2017 by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), an international consortium that linked eight radio observatories around the world to create a single, Earth-size telescope with enough magnifying might to see what until now has been unseeable.
