Supermassive Black Holes

View through CrossRef
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is aiming to image the event horizon of the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy. Andrea Ghez has mapped out the orbits of stars around this supermassive black hole and deduced it has a mass of four million Suns. An even bigger supermassive black hole of six billion solar masses lies at the centre of the M87 Galaxy. Shep Doeleman has marshalled several of the world’s radio telescopes to form the EHT with the aim of imaging the event horizons of these black holes.
