In a groundbreaking achievement, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration has conducted the highest-resolution ...

Astronomers analyzing M87*, the first black hole ever imaged, have discovered that its shadow changes from year to year. The ...

And kept them all in synch with powerful atomic clocks. They call the effort the Event Horizon Telescope. This series of telescopes, combined, has about the same capabilities as a telescope as ...

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a large telescope array consisting of a global network of radio telescopes. The EHT project combines data from several very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) ...

The reason China did not contribute hardware to the black hole imaging project, known as the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), is that none of the country’s telescopes was built for the task ...

A new study using NASA 's James Webb Space Telescope has revealed a variety of light coming from the black hole Sagittarius A* — or rather its accretion disk, the ring of rapidly spinning material ...

On left, this composite simulated image shows how M87* is seen by the Event Horizon Telescope at 86 GHz (red), 230 GHz (green), and 345 GHz (blue). On right, 345 GHz is seen in dark blue ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have taken a detailed look at the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way, Sgr A*, finding it endlessly blowing bubbles.

The first image of a black hole was captured in 2019 by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration. The striking photo of the black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy 55 million light-years ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have spied dynamic flares ... of the accretion disk just beyond the black hole’s event horizon, or the area around a black hole where the pull ...

Beyond just looking at black holes, the next-generation Event Horizon Telescope collaboration is the first to bring together perspectives from across the sciences and humanities.
