We congratulate EHT Founding Director Sheperd Doeleman with the Georges Lemaître International Prize (@UCLouvain_be), and EHT Founding Board Chair Anton Zensus with the Tycho Brahe Medal (European Astronomical Society), which they received for their vital contributions to our black hole images!


Congratulations 👏 to our colleagues Sera Markoff (@profsera.bsky.social) , Heino Falcke , their Namibian & UK collaborators on the funding to make a reality the Africa Millimetre Telescope, a future partner of the Event Horizon 'Scope that will allow us to film #blackholes ru.nl/en/research/re…

Today marks the 1-year anniversary of the Sagittarius A* image revealed by the Event Horizon 'Scope

Rocco Lico (Rocco Lico) kicks off the science presentations with the journey to the Event Horizon 'Scope Sagittarius A* results at the Bologna VLBI conference! #OurBlackHole



In 4 days our yearly Summer 😎 Meeting of the Event Horizon 'Scope Collaboration kicks off in Taichung, Taiwan. We are ready for some amazing #blackhole science!


An the 2023 Summer Meeting of the Event Horizon 'Scope Collaboration kicks off in Taichung, Taiwan! #blackholes


Final day of the Event Horizon 'Scope Collaboration Summer Meeting 2023 in Taichung, Taiwan.



Congrats to our colleagues Monika Moscibrodzka @mmosc_m & Heino Falcke Heino Falcke 👏

Congrats 👏 to Event Horizon 'Scope colleagues Richard Anantua & Bart Ripperda on being part of the collaboration awarded 2.5 Million $ by the Simons Foundation Simons Foundation to investigate the "Extreme Electrodynamics of Compact sources" like EHT-related BH applications Simulation: Ripperda+2022


Big congrats 👏 to our Event Horizon 'Scope colleague Michael Johnson of Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian & his collaborator. Their research on the substructure & properties of black hole photon rings can lead to precise measurements of the BH spin & mass.
