Photographing Black Holes
A development that took place about 4 years ago deeply affected all branches of science, especially physics and astronomy. On April 10, 2019, it was announced that a black hole image was taken for the first time in human history!

The image created the agenda the day it was published, and there are very valid reasons for this.
