The brightness peak of the ring around M87's supermassive black hole has shifted 30 degrees counterclockwise in a year. This is shown by new images released by the Event Horizon Telescope consortium.

But other aspects have not changed. A bright ring and the black hole’s shadow appear almost exactly the same size as before. This helps confirm that M87’s black hole is the type predicted by ...

The iconic image of the supermassive black hole at the center of M87 has gotten its first official makeover based on a new machine learning technique called PRIMO. The team used the data achieved ...

In 2019, the international Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration published the first image of a black hole, of M87* from the center of the galaxy M87. The measurement data on which the image ...

Also known as Virgo A or NGC 4486, M87 is the brightest object in the Virgo cluster of galaxies, the largest gravitationally bound type of structure in the universe. It came to fame in April 2019 ...

An image of the shadow of the supermassive black hole M87 (inset) and a powerful jet of matter and energy being projected away from it. R.-S. Lu (SHAO) and E. Ros (MPIfR), S.Dagnello (NRAO/AUI/NSF) ...

New image of M87 supermassive black hole generated by the PRIMO algorithm using 2017 EHT data ... That system used a type of machine learning that lets computers make rules based on large sets of ...

The type of black hole that’s sitting in the center of a galaxy is different. This is a supermassive black hole, or SMBH, and — as its name implies — it’s much heftier.

The first picture image of the black hole at in the M87 galaxy was released in 2019. Thanks to machine-learning tech, we now have a clearer look. Hotspots ranked Start the day smarter ☀️ ...

Recent analysis of M87's supermassive black hole shows it spins at about 80% of the theoretical maximum, with its accretion disk's inner edge moving at 0.14c.

The famous black hole M87 keeps surprising us. New research calculates its spin speed to be at 80% of the theoretical limit, with matter falling into its maw even faster.
