Astronomers Capture the First Image of a Black Hole | ALMA Observatory

Press Conference Streaming The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), a planet-scale array of eight ground-based radio telescopes forged through international collaboration, was designed to capture images of a black hole. Today, in coordinated press conferences across the globe, EHT researchers reveal that they have succeeded, unveiling the first direct visual evidence of a supermassive black hole...

Black hole picture captured for first time in space ‘breakthrough’

A network of eight radio telescopes around the world helped to record the image

Here is a brilliant and charismatic person who is passionate about science and eager to explain it. I can’t wait to see what she does in the future, but I hope it includes more science popularization.
