Black holes are long-time superstars of science fiction. But their Hollywood fame is a little strange given that no-one has ever actually seen one - at least, until now. If you needed to see to believe, then thank the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), which has just produced the first ever direct image of a black hole. This amazing feat required global collaboration to turn the Earth into one giant telescope and image an object thousands of trillions of kilometres away.
