From ears (Gravitational Wave) to eyes (image of a black hole), we are living in an era where many leaps of humankind happening.
Isn't it *awesome?* We live in _incredible_ era.
Meanwhile we're eating tide pods and dancing next to vacant moving vehicles
Why we need so slow eyes to see 100x100 image in the next 2 years? Also I recall my father sensitive vibration experiment near tram line so i dont need such LIGO ears either
@@Shmidershmax eating tide pods 😂😂😂
Does that leap include the fake moon landing hoax?
Thanks for explaining the process of how the images were taken. So many people on the internet are making fun of the picture through memes but they have no idea how complex it was just for that one image.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's the joke flying over your head!
wow
I believe I saw him just some time ago asking a question at the ESO press conference and now they're ready with this amazing video. This is brilliant work!
This Pic is taken By Huawei P30.
Perfect Zoom.
Nah.
haha this is a joke ...... right?
@@kimtaetaebts5972 only Indian people would say Huawei is the best.
@@Nothing-qs4gj I'm not Indian by i think its a bit rude to say that even if you may be an Indian( i don't know if you are or not) *just friendly advise*
no hate or anything😅😁
Hhhhhh... perfect
I saw a guy tweet about it and I swear his joy and happiness and genuine excitement had me tearing up, he was like a child that had just gotten the best present ever
There are still some things to get thrilled about.
I didn't understand what the whole thing was about, but you've explained it very well. Thanks for that!
Try a lower ISO, move a bit closer and focus.
Lower the shutter speed to let more in to the sensor. Use a tripod.
Lmao
ROFL
And put Shot on iphone Tag
Wy didn't they put backlight themselves ?
And then you have people looking at the image and asking "WhY iS iT So BlUrRy??" xD
Why is it so blurry?
They forgot to focus the Hubble. Why would anyone expect this one to be clear.
They should try Night Sight that google released. It takes multiple pics to enhance the image in low light conditions.
@@Ken.- This photo isn't just The Hubble.
@@eggroll3055 indeed. It's not the Hubble at all.
@@eggroll3055 There you are.
Awesome, edifying, humbling and beautiful! Gosh, there's so much to understand and wrap one's head around. Great job, team. Harry, India
You know that your name is right there and you don't need to type it again, right?
@@birddaddydetta No, I didn't know. Not web-savvy! Thanks all the same.
Hope this year I will get a paid client.
Black hole image still clearer than the audio on this video ffs

It isnt an actual photograph. it is an artistic rendering of trillions of bits of data gathered by hundreds of telescopes and received back in 2017. The data was then analized by computers and edited by scientists and what you see is the result. Not an actual photograph but what the computer and scientists compiled to achieve this result. Hardly astonishing when so many things could be subject to interpretation.
@@susanpepper148 great ....
Thank you, Nature (weekly international journal) for this good description. I hadn't realized how much data was gathered, until it was compared to the Large Hadron Collider. (2:35)
Gerat Job - Thank you for posting !!
Thanks for your effort to make this grand video.
Such an amazing photograph.
A one way exit of our universe.
Not exactly a photography. The guy in the video explained how it was made. Actually you can't make a real photo (with lenses, light rays and CCDs or reactive films) of a black hole. Radiotelescopes work differently.
@@baladar1353 I've seen radio imaging really look just like real photographs before, for example I used a radio telescope to view a comet quite a few months ago and its shape and even some surface details like craters and scars were prevalent in the image. Although this isnt a "real" photograph, It's a visual approximation of what youd actually see with your eyes, no need to be so specific you look like an ass
Amazing video and clear explanation... Thanks for your video..
Excellent description. Thank you!
Your information it's extremely relevant and interesting THANK YOU!
Thank you for the explanation! I got more answers than the questions I had.
Good News Everyone! We detected a blackhole! Now we need a mission to land on it
I invite all of you!
R.I.P
I am going to build my own Black Hole, with blackjack and hookers!
Futurama ?
I'll bring the booze, who will bring the munchies?
I would legit be down honestly
I was waiting for this since 2017 when they said theyd have one in 2018
Hey Davide !!!
Which eye do you use when you look thru the telescope?
oh no
Also...Scientists from different cultures around the world came together to make this happen. Thank you. Now if different cultures can come together over religion, that would be awesome.
But my God hates your god.
More like learn acceptance of different religions
Beautiful and awe-inspiring!
His face looks like a Picasso painting. And that's not bad at all. Very cool in fact. Being unique is awesome.
I believe they placed a microscopic black hole between his face and the camera which makes his face appear distorted due to gravitational lensing.
Excellent three minute guide to the recently released image of the galactic supermassive black hole in M87. Absolutely amazing how far astrophysics has advanced in recent decades. And the advances would be unbelievable to astonomers and astrophysicist of only a couple generations ago.
whats the Eye of Sauron doing in space?
This was a great video. He actually explains things instead of just saying this is the way it is.
Nicely explained. Thanks!
I was staggered when I heard that the telescopes take as much data in a single night as the LHC does in an entire year. That's really incredible, almost too incredible to be true. Does anyone know if that statement is actually correct, or how much data one of these telescopes actually records?
Place from where picture take,If I jump from that place into downward can I go into black hole???
I did not expect that. Touche, nature.
Breaking Now: Krispy Kreme stocks soar as some question whether they are, in fact, the answer to many of the universes unanswered questions.
veratasium did a great video on it. I remember watching the TED talk about this too.
I am so grateful to witness this in my life time !🙏
You're grateful to view that fuzzy mess?
Your eyes made me appreciate Picasso's paintings more than I already did.
Wonderful video :D nice work
Why is the volume in this video so quiet? I can't hear anything Davide says, even with the volume turned up. You could easily raise the volume on this video by 10 dB and it still wouldn't be very loud.
I hear everything clearly
Raven R same
nice. Is a beautiful specimen of the entropy nature of the universe
I want to see a black hole in person so bad😭but I don’t want to die
Your information it's extremely relevant and interesting, but your audio is so loww
low like his right eye
turn the volume up?
Fascinating!
When I think of existence/Universe. Cycle is the best word to describe everything.
This result is a little bit unexpected for me because it almost seems
like we're looking top down (on the angle of rotation) yet light is
bunched up on one side and dimmed on the other. In the models I've seen
this bunching effect covers the black hole slightly as material orbits
between the object and the observer, but we're not seeing this in this
photo (or maybe we are and it's not as obvious).
And if we were
looking top down then we'd expect to see the same luminosity at all
points around the orbit (assuming no bright objects were in that area,
like stars). So, I'd like to see this photo with the angle of the
galactic plane superimposed to be able to make more sense of what is
happening.
Disclaimer: I'm not a scientist. Just an average Joe
with average understanding of this subject, so if you do know something I
don't, don't expect me to know it :o)
This is so cool. I hope they figure out if anything lives inside the black hole once swallowed (in my life time). Thank you Scientific astronomers
they wont, its literally impossible, nothing on the inside can interact with anything outside. All 'information' is permanently lost when it enters a black hole.
Burning ring of fire.
The highlight of my week
M87, the biggest blackhole?! The one in the milky that is 54M light years away from us?
good job
Thanks ! Now i finally understand it.
What a incredible image we are lucky to see this
¡Este hito es fantástico!, excelente video
With the help of physics we are finding places where physics don't work
Even though this is an incredible achievement, I'm kind of disappointed. I bet the data contain crucial information to astronomers and theoretical physicists, but I did hope for a better quality image.
Could this technique be used to look at stellar bodies which is nearer? Like planets and moons in our solarsystem, or planets around proxima centrauri?
currently i have no idea whats going on in the video or the comments. =(
Nice thx for the upload
Love this, thank you. Only comment is that the background music is too loud and distracting.
did you create that clip at 1:41? this video is amazing and the visuals are remarkable. subbed
EDIT: just realized all resources are cited at the end
My favorite part!
Wow That was an amazing video to understand...
Is that where jussie Smolletts case file went ?
Lol
What blows my fkn mind that we have a picture of something that may have evaporated millions of years ago. But we’re only seeing it now cause it’s so far
Well, ot couldn't have. Black holes take nearly 10^100 years to evaporate nd these are supermassive ones. They are far more long lasting. At least million million million mi......50X... Milion times more
His eyes are beginning to form a black hole.
Black hole: Felt cute.... might gobble a star later idk
Amazing
Great job and evidence for a common man.....
I don't understand why they turned RTX off before taking the pic
Amazing it was amazing...
Thank you thanks science...
It is impossible to see a black hole by definition. But then that doesn't make very good PR for a picture, does it?
The xylophone is the official sound of black holes. Drive safe everyone!
Let's declare 10th April as Black hole day
😂
yah plzz.. xd
I am amazed that it looks like a benzene ring, or hexagonal and not perfectly circular. Is this an artifact, or real. And if real, how much "real"? This is really AMAZING gals and guys!
Its always fun to see new black holes but dont look too close with your eyes
What exist into the blacked hell?
Is Tars still in there?
:( Rip tars..
Such large sparse baseline interferometry is quite impressive but the process of tweaking the processing looked rather fleeting as the images changed rather substantially. How certain is this rendition? is it possible it doesn't look like that at all? that it's just a few sine lobes tweaked to give the result they were looking for.
A few images in sequence showing the noise and change would be more convincing.
They processed petabytes of data and spent unthinkable amounts of computer processing time to render a still rather 'blobby' image - remember, the images was taken at radio wavelengths. The team threw away tonnes of noisy data and chose the best data sets to use. Showing the raw data for public consumption would be fine, but _very_ boring for average person (and most astronomers.) The BICEP2 debacle proved invaluable about how *not* confuse everyone.
@@nicholashylton6857 I don't mean raw data in the sense of radio waveforms if that's the raw data, that's unintelligible but something like creating a time sequence of subframes, instead of just the one picture, maybe as little as 8 frames or a bit more, such that the trend of the ring is visible in the jittery noise. Such that it looks like real data. So there is a spatial sense to it. The short clip I saw seemed rather unconvincing. In other words, you are looking for very faint data in the noise so where is the noise.
@@DanFrederiksen Ah, I see. I recall seeing something like that in a video released since the announcement. I will have to go through my browsing history and see if I can find it again. But I am not sure if they were images created from discarded data, images created using the same data but different algorithms, or simply simulations based on different assumptions.
@@nicholashylton6857 I got the sense they were hunts for algorithm tweaks which is what concerned me. It felt very loose.
@@DanFrederiksen
Well, they have published the paper and released all the data, so we'll see how it stands up to scrutiny buy the rest of the scientific community.
To add a further layer of assurance, I understand that they split into two teams who worked independently on the same data set. They apparently came back with results which were in strong agreement.
I don't believe this is the best image they took. I think they have one sharp 4k image just for them
😂😂 They keep all the good ones,and we always get the ones that look like crap.
Me as a nonprofesional astronomer, this makes me excited to think that during my lifetime I can get some very important answers before my death. It will be awesome if they can understand the black holes 100%
1:55 telescope the size of the Earth which is technically impossible.
Or is it? Mega-structuring isn't something we could do yet but don't say something is impossible when we haven't try making it our selves yet.
FINALLY!!

Don't be an asshole and ruin this great discovery
@@pd1cdm What's that? A bird flying to its nest? An airplane landing nearby? No, it's the joke flying above your head.
i have a stupid question but how can we make sure this is a black hole actually ?
The bright disk orbiting nothing
oh....now all humans are able to see a colorful image of black hole....i will remember this day throughout my whole life...😉👌
I hope you remember
Why does a hole appear in the[ light surrounds it ] center ?
That hole is the black hole itself. The other stuff is light that's being pulled in.
@@eggroll3055 Not light but the ring of dust which is rotating at incredibly high speeds giving it a glow. The part where this glow ends is event horizon. The point of no return
@@prateek7140 Technically, there is light in that mixture.
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!
it's fake , same as they say the Earth is Round!
You need to get out more dude it's literally a picture of nothing LOL
@@METRIKVX ... sorry I thought everybody was free to comment I didn't know I had to be a fanboy to comment. If you want to believe this garbage there's throwing at you go ahead I don't have to it's just my opinion
@Collin Daugherty prove it
@me la How do u know it's fake and why don't u think the earth is round
I feel enlightened 👼
Let’s just jump into it
Dang, now my poster that I made years ago about black holes is inaccurate lmao
what an achievement of our scientists
What isn't clear is the direction of its rotation from our perspective. Anyone?
So you could say it looks like portal to hell.
amazing
So, we can't really be sure it's an image of a black hole. We only have pieces of the big picture. We're trusting that the algorithm is correct with the other (approximately) 70% of the big picture... but it could be terribly wrong.
Sure, you can look at it like that. But, this small part can lead to larger discoveries and may serve as the reason space exploration gets more funding etc.
Lies! The earth is flat and black "holes" are actually square.
Jk. This is really amazing.
I call them black balls
agree
Commenta like these are the best.
u got me there I thought u were being serious anyone who knows me irl knows that I HATE FLAT EARTHERS.
GalaxyMuffin Girl the earth is flat, but the spacetime on which it rests is curved and so it appears spherical...um, no, I’ve not done any research 🤪
You should either tweak your Mic settings or get a better Mic.
Thanks. This explains more in 3 minutes than I have heard on this subject to this point.
They just kept hitting "zoom in" and "enhance" until they found one!
Basically just Souron
still better picture quality than a pewdiepie video.
I am guessing, that instead of all material being shredded, that in the middle of the black hole rests an intact acordian.
Bob
Yeah, that's an interesting idea!
