OT: For space-y and science-y nerds - the Milky Way's black hole has been imaged
I don't know the scientific details, but the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a collection of 11 radio telescopes around the world joined together to image black holes. It was used to collect thousands of radio images of Sag A* - the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, our very own black hole! Some of the images were released today, including a video animation, showing the black hole for the first time in history.
No word yet on whether Michigan's 2017-2018 OL has been found...
This is where you can find the black hole when looking at the sky:
These are the radio telescopes used:
This is our black hole (kinda looks like... well, nevermind):
Here is the link to the animation. There is far more interesting news about this here, because I just some local rando interested in such items that doesn't actually know anything about them!
Sauron is at the center of the galaxy???
Always has been...
Splits his time between there and Moscow.
Need to send murderwolf after him to end his reign
Or meanjoe07 to give him chlamydia. Poor marsupial would finally add meaning to his sordid life.
It’s going to take more than an STD to win the kingdom.
Obligatory, thank you.
We are orbiting it at 1/2 million mph. See you back here in 230 million years.
They could have just asked for my address.
