TL;DR
This paper discusses the Event Horizon Telescope's goal to image black hole event horizons, testing general relativity and studying accretion processes using Earth-sized interferometry.
Contribution
It highlights the use of a novel Earth-sized interferometer to directly observe black hole event horizons for the first time.
Findings
Potential to confirm predictions of general relativity
First direct imaging of a black hole's event horizon
Insights into black hole accretion processes
Abstract
The Event Horizon Telescope, an Earth-sized interferometer, aims to capture an image of a black hole's event horizon to test the theory of general relativity and probe accretion processes.
