Black Hole Image Caught on Camera For The First Time Proving Einstein’s Theory
The first-ever black hole image and its shadow have been caught on camera proving the relativity theory of Albert Einstein.
The world’s first photo of supermassive black hole found at the center of Messier 87, a neighboring galaxy of Milky Way has been captured. M87 is an elliptical galaxy some 55 million light-years from Earth
The massive black hole is approximately 6.5 million times the mass of the Sun, according to the experts.
The Astrophysics division director of NASA Headquarters in Washington named Paul Hertz described the capture image as an amazng accomplishment.
“Years ago, we thought we would have to build a very large space telescope to image a black hole. By getting radio telescopes around the world to work in concert like one instrument, the EHT team achieved this, decades ahead of time.” Hertz said.
The first black hole image nearly confirms the general theory of relativity prediction of Albert Einstein.
The EHT team combines together telescopes from the world and mixed their data in order to capture the supermassive black hole.
