#OTD 5 years ago, the Event Horizon 'Scope (EHT) shared the first image ever of a #BlackHole !
The black hole was M87*, and since then, the EHT also imaged Sgr A* (the black hole at the heart of our galaxy) and both objects in polarised light.
Can you say which image matches each? 1/
From work led by Shangjia Zhang Shangjia Zhang (with Zhaohuan Zhu and Yan-Fei Jiang Flatiron CCA) a gorgeous visualization of how radiation hydro effects change the character of the Vertical Shear Instability in protoplanetary disks
