The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration joins efforts with different institutions and telescopes around the world to produce a multi-frequency view of the supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy M87.

Telescopes Unite in Unprecedented Observations of Famous Black Hole

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration, which released the first image of a black hole in 2019 and of which the LMT is a member, has joined efforts with different institutions and telescopes that operate at different wavelength regimes to produce a multi-frequency view of the supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy M87. The combined information across the electromagnetic spectrum provides a unique opportunity to better understand the properties of this supermassive black hole and the mechanisms that power the relativistic jets associated to M87.
