The Black Hole has always been a mystery to humans. For several years, many have tried to create different images of the black hole but no one has ever yet produced a real image. What has been projected so far by astronomers are images of gases surrounding the black hole.

Recently, a group of international scientists have joined together and came up with the project to study and get the first image of the black hole. The project known as the Event Horizon Telescope or EHT  will get data from radio telescopes, which are positioned in different parts of the world. With this project, it is hoped that the astronomers can see a real picture of the black hole.

Meanwhile, a similar report from Extremetech revealed that the EHT will study two (2) black holes, the Sagittarius A Star and the Virgo A. It can be noted that Sagittarius A* is found in the center of the Milky Way, the Earth's galaxy. Meanwhile, Virgo A is located in the M87, which is a nearby galaxy and is described to be the biggest in the local galaxy.

Data gathered in the next few days could provide the first direct view of a black hole! /via @globeandmail https://t.co/Oi3EWWaNv0

The scheduled study of the black holes will take place on April 4 to April 14. With the use of eight radio telescopes, astronomers will observe the same target black holes. It should be noted that the target of the observation is the halo, which is composed of heated gas that is surrounding the event horizon while it is being pulled in to the center.

The team believed that with the eight radio telescopes throughout the earth, they would be able to get clean data that will present the real image of the halo. For continuing update on the black hole, stay tuned to Telegiz.
