Hey, it received 100 'likes', so it’s got to be worthwhile , no?

Whereas accurate exclusive production-related pics received a grand total of…..one – https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...w#post16141747

Although unsurprisingly, barring a handful of souls , accuracy and exclusivity/originality is no stranger to lack of appreciation by the herd, even videophile herds - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...6#post15479503

Fun facts about this BLACK HOLE: it's 55 million light years away, it's spinning clockwise they say,

Diameter estimated at 38 Billion Km, approx. 23.6 Billion miles (or a radius of 11.8 Billion miles),
Distance from Earth to our Sun is about 93 Million miles (a radius measurement) also known as an Astronomical Unit or A.U.,
giving us a radius approx. 127 times the distance to our own sun or 127 A.U.'s.

For comparison, Pluto’s distance from our Sun is 3.67 billion miles.
That would make the Black Hole's radius 3.22 times the radius of Pluto.

BTW, no idea if the radio telescope data was captured in HDR or not? I'm thinking, not.
