Ever wonder what a black hole image looks like in 4K quality?
This simulation shows what one might look like.The black hole itself is the shadow orb seen in the center. No light can escape from this region. A cloud of blazing-hot gas called the accretion disk swirls all around it. This cloud creates the iconic orange ring made famous by the first black hole picture.
Thankfully, by the Grace of Almighty Allah, black holes are very far away from Earth. They are so far that the EHT needed the resolving power of an Earth-sized telescope to produce the first black hole image. While you might think that iconic image is blurry compared to this one, it’s actually one of the highest angular resolution images ever captured.
