Apparently black holes look like the Darksign

this deserves a soijack

So how did they take the picture anyway?
I believe it's real but the "not even light escapes it" thing also is real as far as I know

It's an image complied from radio waves and turned into a composite image, not a real picture taken with a camera. But normalfaggots are idiots and think black holes are actually visible to the naked eye

Obviously untrue otherwise people wouldn't do it.

8 Observatories across the world stared at m87 for however long as the earth rotated. What you see is the plasma circling the black hole.

Why should I care?

Everything that has a gravitational pull also has a limit to it's pull. The visible light is what is just outside the point of no return in it's gravitational pull. The big dark area isn't even the black hole itself. The outer edge of it is called the Event Horizon, and that is the point where it's gravity can no longer be escaped. The black hole itself is a singularity in the center of the dark region.

You first

Define a "real image taken with a camera".

So the picture is just a picture of the outline of a black hole?

yes. light can't escape the event horizon of the black hole, so what we see is the stuff orbiting around it plus the gravitational lensing of the light "behind" it from our perspective.

>If it was really a picture of a black hole the light surrounding it shouldn't even be there.
The dark bit in the middle is the black hole, along with a little extra space where unstable orbiting matter falls in.
The light is the accretion disc, matter in a stable orbit around the hole.

It merely stands to reason that if a sufficiently massive object can affect the path of light, that you could conceivably have an object so massive that light cannot escape it. Mathematicians and astronomers theorized they existed before Einsteins time, Einstein just discovered mathematical formulae that prove they could exist, now we've proven rather conclusively that they actually do.

Leftists wont stop pushing their agenda until all whites are dead.

>Time dilation forever etches the brave man thrusting into the black hole
You only truly die when everything you have done is forgotten.

The main problem with this is that, from your own perspective, you can never reach a black hole.
The black hole is defined as the parts of space from which light can no longer reach you.
But you can always reach yourself.
Due to time dilation, you can't reach the singularity from your own point of view, so the black hole is always too far away to touch.
What you WILL see is the rest of the universe recede away from you further and further, travelling away from you so fast that you can never go back and reach it
But also be in a position where you can never reach the black hole either.

There's a lesson in there about not chasing your obsessions.
You CAN fuck the accretion disc though. That you can do.

It was taken in 2018.
Thing is, it's taken in wavelengths not visible to the human eye, so a computer needs to put together a picture that is represented in our visual wavelength, and that's a process that takes a fuckload of time.
Taking the picture was only a matter of a few days, it took it a year to be processed.

>the event horizon is a physically defined space.
And it is defined differently depending on your point of reference.
If you were to define it as "The region of space from which light could not escape and reach -an arbitrary distance-", then we're literally in M87* now as due to the expansion of the universe, light from it (and for that matter light from US) can never reach the most distant galaxies.
Given that a point of reference is necessary to define an Event Horizon, that means you aren't fucking your own perception of M87's event horizon. You may well be fucking other people's perception of M87's event horizon and thoroughly cucking them, but from your own perspective you're sticking your dick in boring normal space.

This is genuinely fascinating.

I hope someone makes a kino documentary to explain all this shit.
With all the hype going on, they could even project it in theaters.

it has more to do with the fact that the image proves that what physicists and Einstein believed about black holes actually turned out to be true.

Just to fill you in, Black holes were initially discovered because astronomers saw strange little distortions in space. Einstein believed that these distortions were caused by warping in spacetime. When applying einstein's space-time theories, it turned out that some of the distortions had really insane gravity, which led them to conclude about black holes.

But everything previously known about black holes was purely from the math and physics and making a guess based on the theory of relativity.

Now that we can image a black hole (by using the earth as a giant telescope) we can essentially prove black holes exist, AND we can prove that einstein's theory of relativity is further supported

You build a catapult, you load in the projectile, based on math and physics you calculate where you think the projectile will land. You fire the catapult, and it lands where you said it would. That's a pretty big indicator that your understanding of catapult physics are correct.

The photo of the black hole confirms what their calculations said it would look like, if it looked completely different they'd know that the approach to the physics surrounding black holes was way off.

Why didn't we have pictures of this before?

Einstein and relativity are very mainstream, but in the physics world, there are people who don't like the model of relativity.

You still have physicists still trying to prove the Graviton in order to shit on Einstein, or you have the string theory people thinking they're superior because of their 10 dimensional polynomials.

Relativity was essentially Einstein's attempt at making a "theory of everything", but it turns out, a large part of his original theory didn't work out, so it was thrown out. It's the same deal with field theory; a lot of it works, but shit like the Graviton don't. We have 2 pieces of the "Theory of Everything" but no means to connect them

>tfw we're all in smash

Scientists go with the explanations that requiere the fewest assumptions.
For now, what Einstein said seems solid.
But even what he said are theories, and those need to be tested.
Not everyone is sure of everything, what we "know" is just based on what little we have tested that actually works.
Plus, a lot of Einstein's theories have been proven wrong over time, and even Einstein himself disproved his own work a couple of times.

Even Stephen Hawkings himself said that everyone, even Einstein could be wrong about black holes and that event horizons might not even exist.

>Taking the picture was only a matter of a few days, it took it a year to be processed.
The big problem with image processing is that the picture wasn't taken with a telescope.
It was taken via the -correlations between- four telescopes on opposite sides of the planet.
You can't use 1 telescope to take a picture that far away, it's too small. You need to use a telescope the size of a continent.
We don't have a telescope the size of a continent.
What we CAN do is use interferometry between two telescopes on opposite ends of a continent, and use very tiny differences in what those telescopes see in order to build a bigger picture.
Finding consistent similarities between two very noisy inputs is a bit hard.
Finding minute differences that are different -in a consistent way- between two very noisy inputs is really fucking difficult.

Does this bring me any closer to my dream of being a space pirate, and if not, why should I give a single shit

You're already part of great work such as EXPLODING VANS.
Why do you want more user?

I don't really care about being remembered. Fame doesn't interest me. Just pushing forward discoveries for the greater whole of humanity, no matter what it is, is all that I want. I get sick kicks out of that.

It takes sunlight 8 minutes to reach Earth. The Schwarzchlid radius of M87* is like 120 AUs. Crossing the horizon, even pointed directly downwards at a large fraction of the speed of light, would cause no noticeable change in comfort. It could be hours or days before you get close enough to the singularity to spaghettify.

It's actually just an edited picture of her buttwell

He did not write "850,000 of the 900,000" lines of code. The fuck are you on about? The dude himself said he only wrote 68,000. And he's also been congratulating Bouman.

Shut the fuck Gherman
Take your Maria waifu doll and go cry in the backyard

I suppose I can be content with that for now. I've done my fair share of 4chanborne shenanigans.

Cuck. What kind of a moron uses his only life to possibly create something that people can enjoy after he's dead, but most likely will just be a colossal waste of time and effort?

Not him, but I'm more proud of my best Yea Forums posts than the work I'm doing now.

You guys ever think about how a gamma ray burst from a quasar would kill everything on this planet at any point in time and there's nothing we can do to protect ourselves or even detect that it's coming?

No because thats gay nerd shit
Only fags die

Physics or the whims of God taking a giant shit on us is the only reason I want to start colonizing space. It's only a matter of time.

Netflix is going to make a mini-series about this. A determined BUT OH SO POOR, GOOD HEARTED AND INNOCENT YOUNG WHITE WOMAN fights her way through FUCKING WHITE MALES and evil patriarchy that reigns over the science world.
But in the end she makes it through all the resistance thrown in her face by all the ignorant and intellectually inferior men (ugh.. men) and gets to show the world the first image of the black hole and she practically did it all by herself with a little help from her multicultural group of 3 friends - flamboyantly gay nigger woman Shanaynay, a crippled bi-sexual hispanic nerd Miguel and a 55 year old jewish tranny called Fran(k).

Life has existed for almost 5 billion years without happening and the average lifespan of a human is 70, so... Why should I care?

I bet there are space "pirates" (on the people that download shit) sense.
Given that it's just easier to get basic resources from asteroids or just create your own if you're an intergalactic level civilization, the only reason to come to a planet is to get the unique things on it, such as the creatures and most importantly, the media that any civilized society may generate.
So an "encounter" could be just a drone that wait the civilization to form a internet, then connects to it, download everything and fly the fuck away back to its owner, where they sell the data or use it.
And there's absolutely NOTHING RIAA/MPAA can do to stop it.
And DRM and encryption would not fare well at all against such advanced civilization computers.

>contradicting yourself
How am I contradicting myself?

>choose a topic more specific than "everything this one dude every wrote is either true or false"
What?
You are saying that everyone praised him as a messiah and that everyone assumes he's right when a lot of people have proven him wrong in many things in the past.
Black holes are one of the things he was right about, that's pretty much it.

>Why the fuck would science hold on to something for that long that they could not prove?
Until it is proven false or true it stays in consideration. If it's consistent with observations over a long period of time that tend to prove other things wrong, then either it's likely to be true, or it's an antisemitic conspiracy theory (but still likely true).

The important thing is that you millennials managed to turn yet another completely apolitical stuff into something you can be offended about.
God, I can't wait for millennials to grow old, lose their energy and for this culture "war" to fade away into nothingness.

Huh?
Oh god I'm a retard. My bad.

Satellites are in space so technically we're all pirating shit from space.

If the world were full of retards like you you wouldn't even have a computer to show everyone how much of an ignorant fool you are.

Remember that Sagittarius's arrow is pointing at us
