Event Horizon Telescope Achieves Highest Resolution Images of Black Holes
Aug 27, 2024, 01:58 PM
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has achieved a significant breakthrough by capturing the highest resolution images ever obtained from the Earth's surface. This advancement promises to reveal unprecedented details of supermassive black holes, including Sagittarius A*, the black hole at the center of our galaxy. The EHT's enhanced capabilities result from recent upgrades, which have allowed scientists to make record observations and improve the technique behind the telescope. This development builds on the EHT's previous milestone of capturing the first-ever image of a black hole.
