example albert einstein s theory of relativity no small matter. all right let s discuss everything now with my colleague from the science desk later we finally now know we re glad call a looks like i thought scientists already had simulations of black holes explain to us please the significance of this particular picture well it seems funny but it s really beautiful i love it if you ve dreamt about like both the night because i was so excited it s really huge it s quite huge i mean it was widely accepted that black holes exist but no one had ever seen one and now it s the first real image that that s there. and as i think the whole community is now really excited there was a difficulty of course we observed that now this is this is from the galaxy m eighty seven which was observed the black hole at the center of this galaxy is fifty five
international cooperation the behind the ability to capture these images this whole project wouldn t be possible without international cooperation there were eight telescopes so far in this network which where working together very very expensively there where using atomic clocks for example that use only one second every million every hundred million years so it s very accurate and it s needed they they need those difference pots on on earth to really observe of and to gather all those states have because imagine it s very foul way this black hole they observe now is at the center of a galaxy which is called a chief at eighty seven and it s fifty five million light years away from us. to capture those signals you need a really big dish a really big telescope that s why they needed those different problems on planet earth. yet to actually gather those those data this huge amount of data ok so
