This improved picture shows the magnetic field. A few years ago, black holes were theoretical, and now we have a picture of one.

Would you believe that the largest black hole in the universe is estimated to be the equivalent mass or weight of 17 billion suns?

Space, The Final Frontier...

I believe they had an X-ray photo of a Black Hole but this shows more details. Albert Einstein would be happy.

Forgive me for disappearing into my own thoughts but this picture is such a contrast with my life, I’m 76, and so minuscule in comparison. And yet there are scientists and engineers who want to explore and build the equipment that captured this image. Thank goodness for these people!
