The first-ever image of the hollow depths of a black hole, captured by the Event Horizon Telescope, provided the strongest evidence of their existence and alignment with theoretical predictions.
More than 400 scientists are collaborating on the next generation of the Event Horizon Telescope to create the first-ever movie of a black hole by capturing snapshots of the supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy Messier 87, observed over time.
The appearance of the black hole M87* changes over time, with the brightest peak of the ring shifting by about 30 degrees in just one Earth year, as observed by the Event Horizon Telescope.
Event Horizon Telescope aims to turn snapshots taken every third day of the black hole into a moving picture by securing funding and global telescope access for optimal observation months.
