"Using data collected from their network of telescopes, the Event Horizons Telescope team hopes to produce the first ever image of a black hole in 2018."



"
FIRST LOOK AT A BLACK HOLE
Within the next 12 months, astrophysicists believe they’ll be able to do something that’s never been done before, and it could have far-reaching implications for our understanding of the universe. A black hole is a point in space with a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape from it. Albert Einstein predicted the existence of black holes in his theory of general relativity, but even he wasn’t convinced that they actually existed. And thus far, no one has been able to produce concrete evidence that they do. The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) could change that............."

Tonight on PBS they had a new one on titled:

"Black Hole Apocalypse"

I just got through watching it - It was awesome - They now know there is at least one super massive black hole inside
of every galaxy in the universe.

You may be able to see it on their website:

To the blind ppl, the name has little or no meaning.

They should be renamed to something like

Super attractors or Super magnets or scrap heap suckers...

Besides how can you take an picture of something that doesn't allow any light to escape?...It would have to be an x-ray scan or infrared scan image perhaps, I didn't read the article yet...lol

So what's inside a black hole or could be inside a black hole..
I doubt them to be in the form they were initially swallowed in .

Probably all the planets, interstellar dust, stars, you name it ,crushed to the tinyist of pieces..

Gotta be some aliens in there aswell, lol

The Universes trash can. They say that eventually they will suck everything into them and there will be nothing left of the Universe/es but a void.

If that happens, wouldnt there be a universe inside of them then.. Which makes me wonder if this universe resides inside a black hole.

On the other side I guess there would be but you wouldn't see it from our side.
