[Urdu/Hindi] Imaging the Black Hole in the Milky Way

Black holes are the strangest objects in the universe. Astronomers have known for some time about the existence of a supermassive black hole at the center of our own galaxy, the Milky Way. They called it Sagittarius A* or Sgr A*. Just recently, using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), astronomers for the first imaged the light right outside the event horizon of this black hole. A few years ago, EHT also imaged the central black hole in the galaxy M87. Please join astrophysicist Salman Hameed is exploring how this was done and why it was more difficult to "see" our own black hole in the Milky Way compared to the one in M87, 55 million light years away.For video of this podcast: https://youtu.be/ovYiGH3cqmI
