To really understand the image, it must be compared with black hole simulations. UArizona worked with partners to create the world's largest simulation library. Read more Image UArizona astronomers lead efforts that reveal the black hole at the heart of our galaxy May 12, 2022 After years of anticipation, the international Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration presented the first image of the black hole located at the center of our own Milky Way galaxy, called Sagittarius A*. Scientists had previously suggested the presence of a black hole at this location, but there was no direct visual evidence until now.
