Finally proof: our black hole is now in the picture

For those who have no idea what it really is: a black hole is an area of ​​the universe with so much gravity that not even light can escape, writes the NASA website. “A black hole can form when a star dies.”

Scientists know this for sure: we will see it in all the books on astronomy. Because this discovery could lead to completely new perspectives on physics. This is not the first photo of a black hole, a photo of a more distant black hole was already shared in April 2019, but this is the black hole of our galaxy. Not that it’s close: It’s 27,000 light-years away.

There is also material

But what do you actually see in this photo? The plate is actually a composite of several interconnected telescopes, called the Event Horizon Telescope. This is the middle dark area where the surrounding light particles are absorbed.
