So, talk us through how do you get from Einstein's equation to a black hole?
You're almost seeing a black hole puncture through space-time, and when it goes so deeply in, then there's a point at which light orbits the black hole.
This is not an image, this is a computer simulation of what we always thought, like, the event horizon around the black hole.
SD: Until last week, we had no idea what a black hole really looked like.
That's where photons literally move around the black hole, and around that is this hot gas that's drawn to the black hole, and it's hot because of friction.
And at its heart, there's a six-and-a-half-billion- solar-mass black hole.
But to see one, you would need to build a telescope as large as the Earth, because the black hole that we're looking at gives off copious radio waves.
What you're seeing here is we used telescopes all around the world, we synchronized them perfectly with atomic clocks, so they received the light waves from this black hole, and then we stitched all of that data together to make an image.
But light had to come from the black hole.
It had to come through intergalactic space, through the Earth's atmosphere, where water vapor can absorb it, and everything worked out perfectly, the size of the Earth at that wavelength of light, one millimeter wavelength, was just right to resolve that black hole, 55 million light-years away.
The puncture in space-time is so deep that light moves around in orbit, so that light behind the black hole, as I think we'll see soon, moves around and comes to us on these parallel lines at exactly that orbit.
CA: When ... In my head, initially, when I thought of black holes, I'm thinking that is the event horizon, there's lots of matter and light whirling around in that shape.
SD: You'll see here that some light from behind it gets lensed, and some light does a loop-the-loop around the entire orbit of the black hole.
But when you get enough light from all this hot gas swirling around the black hole, then you wind up seeing all of these light rays come together on this screen, which is a stand-in for where you and I are.
SD: So what's happening is that the black hole is spinning.
CA: And so when we think of a black hole, you think of these huge rays jetting out of it, which are pointed directly in our direction.
SD: This is a very powerful black hole.
Not by universal standards, it's still powerful, and from the north and south poles of this black hole we think that jets are coming.
And that's what's being bent around the black hole.
And for this black hole, it's going to be between three days and about a month.
