Here’s the first picture of a black hole                            


the first ever photo of a black hole, an orange and red aura surrounding a dark round spot

1- A black hole isn’t really a hole. It’s an object in space with incredible mass             packed into a very small area.

2-  All that mass creates such a huge gravitational tug that nothing can escape a black hole, including light.

3- The newly imaged supermassive monster lies in a galaxy called M87.

4-  A world-spanning network of observatories called the Event Horizon                    Telescope, or EHT, zoomed in on M87 to create this first-ever picture of a               black hole.

5- The concept of a black hole was first hinted at back in the 1780s. The                    mathematics behind them came from Albert Einstein’s 1915 general theory of        relativity. And the phenomenon got its name “black hole” in the 1960s.

Things You Didn't Know About ... Aliens 1  Astronomers Margaret Turnbull and Jill Tarter of the  Carnegie Institution in Washington , D.C., have compiled a list of 17,129 nearby stars most likely to have planets that could support complex life. 2  According to Turnbull, stars must be at least 3 billion years old (to allow life time to evolve), have low mass, and have high levels of iron; metals are needed to form rocky, Earth like planets. 3  Leading the list is Epsilon Indi A, a dim orange star just 11.8 light-years away, in our local corner of the Milky Way. 4  What's the frequency, Frank? Astronomer Frank Drake made the first scientific attempt to contact alien beings in 1960, when he used an 85-foot radio dish at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in West Virginia to listen for signals from two nearby sun like stars. 5  You haven't heard about it because his search turned up zilch. 6  The more sophisticated efforts of the SE
