'We Have a Donut': Astronomers React to First Image of Milky Way's Black Hole

The fuzzy, bright-orange trappings of a beast in the heart of our galaxy made a big impact on scientists and space nerds today. The first image of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, known as Sagittarius A*, was released by the event horizon telescope.

The group released the first image of a black hole in the year 2019, and now they have turned their telescopes closer to home. Sagittarius A*, a source of radio waves at the center of our universe, has been assumed to be a black hole. We know it now.

The wait is over. The professor of astronomy and astrophysics at the University of Arizona, Feryalzel, announced on Thursday morning that the black hole is at the center of our galaxy.

Astronomers have been looking at the shadow of M87 for a long time.

The video of Smethurst's reaction to seeing the image of Sagittarius A* was posted on YouTube.
