On Wednesday, astronomers unveiled the first image of a black hole. This is the first time ever that the black holes have been captured on camera. It is to be noted that it was announced through a simultaneous press conference in Brussels, Shanghai, Tokyo, Washington, Santiago and Taipei. However, it is worth mention here that the image of a dark core with a flame-orange halo of gas and plasma shows a supermassive black hole 50 million light years away in a galaxy known as M87, said a statement at the press conference.

Here it is to be noted that what went into the capturing of a black hole on camera is an astonishing tale of perseverance and technical wonder. However it is worth mention here that the European Southern Observatory said that the power of eight radio telescopes around the world was used via Very-Long-Baseline-Interferometry.

However, it is to be noted that a black hole is identified by the particles around it as its gravitational pull brings in objects such as gas and dust of which some settle into an orbiting disk, with atoms jostling one another at extreme speeds. To be noted that according to the explanation provided by sciencenews.org  this information provided that all that activity heats the matter white-hot, so it emits high-energy radiation which can be then be captured by the telescopes.
