Maybe somebody should explain how astronomers identified this object as the center of our galaxy. I just saw a zoom video that starts with a view of the milky way and ends up with that image of the black hole (similar to ESO/Gravity Consortium/L. Calçada/N. Risinger https://www.eso.org/public/videos/eso1835c/). Amazing! Regards, Dieter |

The paper discusses the options between this object and M87* (an even more massive black hole) in detail. |

Just be aware that other people might disagree. Do that often enough and others will stop paying attention to you. |
