Scientist Unveil New Image of first black hole this time is more sharpened up

Black Hole is a subject which has always fascinated scientists. However, scientists have not yet been able to know very deeply about black holes. In the year 2019, scientists showed the first picture of a black hole. This giant black hole is present in a galaxy named ‘Messier 87’ (M87), about 54 million light years away from Earth. The picture of the black hole shown by the scientists was a bit blurry. One scientist involved in the creation of that picture compared the black hole to a ‘fuzzy orange doughnut’. After about 4 years, scientists have unveiled the new image of that black hole.

Report According to, the special thing is that scientists have prepared the new picture with the help of the same data from which the first picture was made. This time the resolution of the photo has been improved by using image reconstruction algorithm. If we want to understand black holes in simple words, then these are such places in our universe where no law of physics works. There is only gravity and dense darkness. The gravity of black holes is so powerful that even light cannot escape from its effect. Whatever goes inside a black hole cannot come out.

The picture of the black hole that scientists have recreated appears clearer than the image of the year 2019. In this, a ring of light is visible around the black hole. A black hole is visible in the middle. Although the new picture is also not very clear, but it is more clear than the first picture.

As we told, this giant black hole is in the Messier 87 galaxy. The mass of this galaxy is 6.5 billion times more than that of our Sun. This galaxy is larger and more luminous than our Milky Way. Research related to this picture in Astrophysical Journal Letters published It has happened. The lead author of the research, Lia Medeiros, has called this picture ‘Skinny Donut’, just as the previous picture was called ‘Fuzzy Orange Donut’.

The machine-learning technique that scientists used to improve the picture of black holes is called PRIMO. Its full name is ‘Principal-Component Interferometric Modeling’. With the help of technology, scientists filled those gaps whose data they could not find. Scientists are now considering improving the picture of another black hole. This picture was released last year.
