If you can’t appreciate the pic of the black hole you clearly don’t understand the gravity of the situation.

I mean seriously what’s the point? Because they are curious? Do they plan to stop this black hole from one day gobbling up our galaxy? Will they solve all the worlds humanitarian problems studying pictures of a what looks like a backlit anus?
Without going too deep the study of black holes is expected to help refine our understanding of special relativity and quantum gravity/mechanics. The more we understand the very basics of how physics work the more amazing inventions and processes we develop. These are the type of things that lead to paradigm shifts in how we lead our everyday lives.
While I agree with you, the average OT idiot that posts on here has no clue what you're talking about nor could they ever comprehend it.

Yea, from the pic, I estimated that it is at least 36 light years away. Just doesn’t make sense
That means we should be sucked into it in 36 years. If we’re still around in 37 years you know it was bs.

Wouldn’t surprise me
Hey look
Dark spot surrounded by light
Black hole
Give us $100 billion for research

Who is “they” that made it up? The gubment? THEY made up black holes to get tax dollars? What about astronomers, astrophysicists mathematicians? THEY in on it to?
Man, the cynicism and close-mindedness on this site is amazing at times.

The ROI on these pics is super low
Really???? Well, *IF*, we as "advanced humans" have only been aware.. or we can only see less than 10% of the matter that is before our eyes, and our human eyes are only capable of seeing 0.0035% of what is visible in the electromagnetic spectrum... the return this money would bring could be over 99% of applicable knowledge that is left for us to learn and use... because relatively speaking, we are fast finding out that our current knowledge of life is not far ahead of blind subterranean worker ants who would assume the beginning and end of all existence consists entirely of the feel and smell of dirt.
I wouldn't claim I understand anything about quantum entanglement but just becoming aware of this concept is enough for me to realize that our intelligence as a species hasn't even come out the gate yet. Accepting the existence of black holes and corresponding theory that time ceases to exist at the event horizon is the first step in realizing everything we think we know and understand about reality itself... ...is next to nothing..

Maybe we could just leave it as it has the possibility of increasing one's Instaho experience.

Spooky action at a distance is one of the most mind-warping concepts to me.
When we get consumer level quantum computing is going to change pretty much every aspect of our lives and it will be a result of all these nerds "wasting" precious resources on such silly things.

Used to binge watch Interstellar. Something about that movie gets me. I’d want to be one of the ones who left to go find our new home. It’s just so epic
