Colossal Black Hole at Centre of Milky Way Galaxy Pictured For First Time
There is a humungous black hole that resides in the centre of our galaxy, something that has been pictured for the very first time. 13 May 2022 ITV News https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...-Composite.jpg https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...RS_DOOR_01.jpg The image was taken by by NASA's Curiosity rover https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...RS_DOOR_03.jpg Conspiracy theorists believe that it is clearly a cleanly carved doorway Dubbed Sagittarius A*, astronomers have revealed the black hole is four million times the mass of our own sun. Now, for the first time, the world has been able to see this monster, albeit in wild but fuzzy images. Experts believe that nearly all galaxies, including our own, have these giant black holes at their centre. The black holes prevent light and matter from escaping, making it extremely hard to get images of them. Light gets chaotically bent and twisted around by gravity as it gets sucked into the abyss along with superheated gas and dust. The colourised image unveiled on Thursday is from the international consortium behind the Event Horizon Telescope, a collection of eight synchronised radio telescopes around the world. |
