They got an image of something, yeah.
Or, did they?
"So we had been perfecting these imaging algorithms on synthetic data. We’d fed these algorithms made-up data. So we would take a black hole image that we might be looking at. We’d corrupt it with noise, and we’d send it through these algorithms, and we’d refine these to the point where we were pretty confident in these algorithms."
Algorithms? For what? So they're not just taking a photo of something observed through a telescope.
They're not really explaining this either.
I'm trying to keep an open mind but I'm still not buying the whole black hole thing.
There needs to be something more intellectually compelling than "we know it's a black hole because we know it's a black hole".
Yes, you read that right. I am doubting this religion.
"That was a moment where there was a lot of crying and screaming."
another odd quote from this article, provided one is assuming this is supposed to be around the scientific method.
