Event Horizon Telescope ( EHT ) project made history in 2019 when it unveiled the first -ever image of a black hole.

An independent analysis of the EHT data suggests part of the image's doughnut-like appearance may be an artifact due to the way it was put together.

Sgr A

(short for Sagittarius A

) resides just 26,000 light-years from Earth .

Astronomers say forthcoming technological upgrades to telescopes will allow them to gather more detailed images and better constrain the area around Sgr A

and other black holes. The paper about these results was published this year in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society . Sharmila Kuthunur is a Seattle -based science journalist covering astronomy, astrophysics and space exploration. Follow her on X @skuthunur..
