Every image of a black hole you’ve seen was just an illustration. Until now.

Black hole, revealed: First image from across the universe
The Event Horizon Telescope captures one of the most powerful objects in existence. And basically, it’s the Eye of Sauron.

    What kind of innovations do you think we can expect from this discovery? Worm hole devices? If you liked this check out NASA's new exoplanet-hunting satellite, TESS https://youtu.be/tjkqhQ3NI3o

    Shouldn’t Matthew McConaughey be in that photo of the black hole?

    If this is true, this is actually Satan's prison, he'll come out of it, a big dragon. I hope it happens…..less boring than the fake reality they're selling us.

  4. tsolias27 says

    So, if every person on earth was a Sun, we would be that hole now…hmmm

  6. Collin Daugherty says

    Taking people's money is easy… getting them to believe you is priceless if you're in the control game! Just remember there's a big difference in what we choose to believe and what we truly know!

    So if there is a planet relatively close to that black hole.. and you could of done this from there… like take a photo of earth, earth would be 50 million years younger from that perspective

  11. K T says

    And what have they achieved by taking the photo. Instead of wasting time on useless things they need to focus researching on matters more important.

  34. Cary Coller says

    Ok, black holes are interesting, I guess, but why are people spending untold millions of dollars to to study them and take pictures of them? How is that benefitting society?

  35. andrew white says

    that android quality tho 3:51

  36. Aaron Banks says

    🤔

  37. MG1 says

    Congratulation German scientist who moved space science into fiction. He was signed up by Trojan project to undermine Allied science. He was a very clever man. Over 110 years, billions of dollar, million of scientist around the Glob, but still no one know gravity, structure of matter or it’s evolution, the building block of everything in universe. This make models of space and matter fiction…well done. $billions of dollar to produce a fuzzy graphic. just like G.W.. Wow. Well done. MG1

  38. DeVstatrOmga says

  42. Adam Ferello says

    This idiots know literally nothing!!! even about the closest to us stars and planets but they were able to take a picture of a blackhole ? Pls at least prepare yourself before lying to the people. Idiots

  43. B. H says

    In fact it's an indirect photo of a black hole, we can picture its surroundings but not the black hole itself, like in Interstellar. I thought we would have a detection in 3D of the black hole's surface, which is black and the Event Horizon…

  44. blue_ sky says

    too bad it was taken with a potato

  45. Emmanuel Perez says

    I thank all of them for having a simple language for such a complicated topic in astrophysics. They explained it so that anyone could understand.

  46. Luis Burciaga says

    Flat black hole confirmed

  47. LeeAxon says

    One of the most important photos ever…."quickly put the bright lights on as soon as the Black Hole appears on screen" 🤷🏼‍♂️😒
