This wavelength is observable by many large existing telescopes, so the EHT is a collaboration between those observatories. This matter emits light at a range of wavelengths around 1.3 millimeters, which fortunately passes through Earth’s atmosphere and the interstellar gas between us and the center of the Milky Way. These images will provide valuable information about the behavior of matter right as it falls into the black hole. With the addition of four observatories, including CfA’s Greenland Telescope, the EHT continues to observe both M87 and Sagittarius A*.
That combined power gave it the resolution necessary to take an image of the supermassive black hole in the giant elliptical galaxy M87. The EHT uses a method known as “ very long baseline interferometry” (VLBI) to yoke multiple telescopes together into a single virtual observatory the size of the planet. Despite their ubiquity and large mass, these black holes are relatively small in size meaning even our best telescopes can’t take images of them - at least when working alone.
Nearly every large galaxy contains at least one supermassive black hole weighing millions or billions of times the mass of the Sun. Today we know black holes are common throughout the cosmos. That discovery was followed closely by the identification of the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* in 1974. The first candidate black hole was Cygnus X-1, discovered by the Uhuru X-ray satellite. These objects are so dense, they are surrounded by a boundary called an event horizon anything crossing that boundary can never return to the outside universe. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.īecause sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.Credit: Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration The Telescopes and the Scienceīlack holes in the modern sense were first predicted as a consequence of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity in 1915. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by the Digital Entertainment Group. We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published in Media Play News.įor example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking.
