Black Hole Image Makes History; NASA Telescopes Coordinate Observation | NASA
Have you ever seen a black hole? If not, then see the image. You will find the shadow of a supermassive black hole captured by 8 ground-based radio telescopes located around the world. During the event, they worked together to capture it.
A black hole is an extremely dense object from which no light can escape. Anything that comes within a black hole’s “event horizon,” its point of no return, will be consumed, never to re-emerge, because of the black hole’s unimaginably strong gravity. By its very nature, a black hole cannot be seen, but the hot disk of material that encircles it shines bright. Against a bright backdrop, such as this disk, a black hole appears to cast a shadow.
