Astronomers Get Closest Look Yet At Milky Way's Mysterious Core.
Astronomers have gotten their deepest glimpse into the heart of our Milky Way Galaxy, peering closer to the supermassive black hole at the Galaxy's core then ever before. Using the National Science Foundation's continent-wide Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), they found that a radio-wave-emitting object at the Galaxy's center would nearly fit between the Earth and the Sun. This is half the size measured in any previous observation. <b>NOTE: French, German, Italian, and Spanish translations follow...</b>
Comments:
I love the new radio and infrared science behind the search of the 'happy hunting grounds' near the Galactic Center. To actually "see" actual evidence of something like a black hole would (yet again) add credence to Einstein's exceptional insight.
