Scene №1 Cosmonautics. A black hole named Powehi
With the help of eight observatories around the world, whose radio telescopes are synchronized by ultra-precise atomic clocks, earthlings for the first time saw an image of the most mysterious space object: a black hole.
Scientists did not doubt its existence, but they saw it for the first time.
A dark circle with an orange halo was named after the Powehi, which means "decorated dark source of endless creation" in Hawaiian.
Interview: Sergey Popov, Anatoly Cherepashchuk.
