There are no direct views of black holes.

Let’s hope the camera doesn’t get sucked in...

Seriously, though, I wonder where things (well, light mostly, I suppose) go after they disappear into a black hole. Do they become quasars?

I’m not a scientist and took my “Physics for Poets” class decades ago in college. :)

For those holding their breath:

“Last to arrive will be the data from the South Pole, which is just entering the long, dark winter season and where planes will not arrive to pick it up until November.

At the earliest, then, it will likely be December before the team knows exactly what it has. If they have succeeded, the first direct image of a black hole’s event horizon will come soon after that.”

What if looking directly at it makes it angry?

FAKE NEWS.
Seems their telescope was loose in its mount, tilted down and was imaging either obozo’s soul or the economy he left for Trump to repair.
