For the first time in human history, we’ve been able to take an image of a black hole, well, to be clear not an actual photo but a collection of data which then rendered to be an image. MIT grad student genius Katie Bouman started her work 3 years ago on a new algorithm that corrected and achieves this first-time ever picture of the mysterious hole, all so the internet could roast it.
You're looking at the first ever image of a black hole. It was captured by the #NSFFunded @ehtelescope project. #ehtblackhole #RealBlackHole https://t.co/6dglvqrvOs pic.twitter.com/0hclANf4tc

Scientists have just released the first known pictures of an actual black hole. The gravity is so strong that no treats can escape, and it sucks people in from long distances to give belly rubs. #EHTBlackHole pic.twitter.com/GijUUVH6Pb
