By definition, you’re not going to have a picture of the black hole. No light can escape a black hole, so there cannot be a picture.

You have a picture of the accretion disc surrounding the black hole. Still very cool.

That’s impressive, especially since the articlke said black holes are very hard to photograph.

Thanks for posting.

While we could never see the black hole itself, we could see the very closest stars to the black hole under significant gravitational pull.
