PETALING JAYA: Astronomers from Universiti Malaya (UM) were part of the international team that made the first images of a black hole a reality.

The images were captured using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) — a planet-scale array of eight ground-based radio telescopes forged through international collaboration designed to capture the images of a black hole.
