21 things that the black hole looks like
On Wednesday, the National Science Foundation and the Event Horizon Telescope group unveiled the first-ever image of a black hole. Compiled from five petabytes worth of data captured by eight telescopes around the globe, the image is a scientific feat, a marvel, an arresting glimpse into a part of the universe never before seen by mankind.
It also looks like a bagel dipped in lava!
