The first direct image of a supermassive black hole, found in the galactic core of Messier 87. This view is somewhat from above, looking down on one of its galactic jets. Rather than an accretion disc, it shows synchrotron radiation in the microwave range (1.3 mm). This light was emitted by electrons captured in the plasma vortex at the base of a jet. Radiation of this wavelength does not reveal the thermal features thought to dominate the emissions of an
