The recently released image
Captured by Event NASA’s Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)
Said to be the first visual evidence of the black hole.
This could be made possible due to the efforts of more than 300 researchers from 80 institutions around the world.
Though the black hole cannot be seen itself,
The view captures light bent by the powerful gravity of the black hole.
The black hole – named as the Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*),
Lies in the centre of Milky Way
26,000 light years away from Earth.
This is said to be another evidence in support of Einstein’s General Relativity.
