Since 2006, 11 radio telescopes around the globe have worked together trying to make a picture of a giant black hole. Scientists called the project The Event Horizon, which is the term for the border of a black hole, beyond which no matter or light can travel fast enough to escape the gravity. ETH scientists captured radio waves from the event horizon, and made out the shadow of the black hole. Radboud University Nijmegen astrophysicist  Heino Falcke said, "We're looking at a region that we've never looked at before - a region we cannot imagine being there. It feels like looking at the gates of Hell, at the end of space and time: the event horizon, the point of no return. That is awe-inspiring to me, at least, but it's also important to physics."

自2006年开始，地球上的11台辐射望远镜一直在合作试图制作一个庞大黑洞的影像。科学家们给这个项目起名叫地平线现象，这个词的意思是黑洞的边缘，没有任何物质和光可以快过地心引力从这个界限出来。科学家采集了来自于地平线现象的辐射波，并绘制出了黑洞的影子。Radboud University Nijmegen 的天体物理学家 Heino Falcke 说，“我们看到我们不曾看到的地方，我们无法想象会去到那里的地方。感觉上好像是在看地狱的门口，在时间和空间的尽头，地平线现象，有来无回的地方。这至少令我敬畏万分，同时这对物理研究也很重要。”
