LATEST UPDATE ON EVENT HORIZON TELESCOPE

Hey Space Placers!

Here is the latest on the Event Horizon Telescope Project that is trying to image the event horizon around our Milky Way Galaxy's supermassive black hole.

From EarthSky.org
Here’s what astronomers see when they look in the direction of the galaxy’s center with NASA’s Chandra X-Ray Observatory. Sagittarius A* is in this image, but, so far, hot gas has obscured our view of the supermassive black hole’s event horizon. Ellipses indicate light echoes. Image via
