Nope. There already already multiple independent reanalyses of the EHT data, all of the others found a result consistent with the published image. The most likely explanation is that Miyoshi fucked up his analysis, some of that is described here in that he forces to algorithm to recover structure on scales which aren't sampled. Does he show his result is repeatable with other codes? No. The EHT team did, with 3 different methods and it has been independently reproduced.

What the fuck do you think is in the picture of OP? What about the picture I just posted? It's a black hole leaving a trail of young blue stars behind it as it cruises through space. There are tons of images of gravitational lensing by black holes, x-ray ejections from blackholes, and other radiation created by them. You don't see the actual black hole because you literally can't, since the light is trapped but you can see it's effects around it.

you literally can't take pictures like this from so far away. You'd need a lens the size of the solar system. It's clear the entire thing is not real.

he still has a point. heavily inferred images are not pictures of the thing. unfortunately there is no clear dividing line between artificial and natural images; I, personally, would not even consider the false-color images of nearby objects like Mars as 'images of the thing'. an image is only something that shows what I would see with my own eyes. false-color and statistically constructed "images" are useful, but in this age of total distrust they should be called something else or at least clearly watermarked with "NOT A REAL IMAGE".

That is a shitty definition. Your computer screen is showing you an image of this board, a completely artificial construction. It's still an image though.
What you propose would be stupid, as the information in the image file is no different if it was taken with a visible light camera or an x-ray detector. Both are stored as 2D image arrays, and can be shown graphically. They are just as real as each other.
The term you are looking for is true color.

I was skeptical when both black holes were donuts conveniently facing us.

The retards are looking at this picture and thinking "of course there’s ring are you people blind?" They are not intellectually curious enough to find out HOW these images are generated to begin with. They imagine it’s like taking a photo of the night sky, just boost contrast / saturation with time-lapse photography to get nice colors etc. These electro telescope images aren’t "images" at all, they’re electromagnetic frequency data which are color-coded using advanced models to map frequencies to colors to generate the image. To get the OP’s image a tiny sliver of data was tweezered out of a massive jumble of background signal and the model tweaked until the desired ring was generated. Basically the image creators messed with it until the resulting image showed what they wanted it to show. The problem was that not only was signal-to-noise so low as to be no different from noise ("artifact") but also that the image creators had to break established models for color-mapping. It’s super advanced esoteric radio-imaging shit under discussion but I saw a good video on it here: https://youtu.be/ZlrTe1mi5EQ

You claim to know what you're talking about but haven't even mentioned the word interferometry. You have no understanding.
>The problem was that not only was signal-to-noise so low as to be no different from noise ("artifact")
Completely false. Pick related shows the visibility amplitudes of the 2016 EHT results from 2016 as reported by Miyoshi et al., on the left is the signal to noise ratios. You can see that the different baselines have SNRs of up to a few hundred, particularly those that include ALMA. So no, it's not low.
Robitaille has no idea what he's talking about, he apparently hasn't even read the paper he's citing. He has never looked at the data, or any astronomical data, he has no idea how VLBI really works. And neither do you.
>also that the image creators had to break established models for color-mapping

I think people would be SHOCKED to learn just how few actual “scientists” there are. I mean people who understand their fields from the basic theories on up to the theoretical level. The ACTUAL reason why skepticism is met with dismissal / hate instead of a response is because most people who claim to be scientists are no such thing. They have a certain baseline of knowledge but not a fundamental understanding. For example…
Skeptic claim “x”
Scientist: x has been proven wrong by experiment y where researchers tested it using the following formulation…and it also violates Whoever’s Law which was proven by z experiment in….
Scienceologist: you’re a science-denying crank
Notice that with an actual scientist and actual exploration of the issue is possible even if he is completely confident in his belief, and, in extension, is open to having his belief altered in light of new information. The Scientologist is more like a priest repeating canon law and is uninterested in debating it; to him, questioning the dogma is a moral failure.

I don't really reply or make threads anymore but Images like these have helped me out with some of the worst points of my life and even get comfortable with the inevitability of my own death. In the end we are products of this reality, I could ramble on about what makes this universe special like how matter won against anti-matter or all the unique properties that keep the universe stable enough to support us and what exactly it took for you to exist but don't forget how insignificant you and I are. Remember to be humble, It is a privilege to be alive, an unbelievable amount take existence for granted, most live day to day just completely unaware of how much they owe to just being alive. if you are feeling hurt about a girl leaving you or someone dying or maybe something made you trip in life like someone abusing you, remember that you are alive, born healthy and were born in the greatest century so far to be alive. Life is fleeting and there is a very good chance consciousness is a temporary state. Whether there is an afterlife or not both are equally terrifying. If you are ever in a rough spot remember to be kind to yourself and to others, most people will not return it but so be it. Expecting a reward through kindness defeats the purpose of kindness. remember that you are a gift not only to yourself but to others.

Because they religiously follow the "theory" of relativity and try to twist and fudge the data as much as they can to support st. Einstein, the jewish prophet.
"Black holes" don't even exist, they are just supermassive objects who don't emit light because light is a MASS like ALL PARTICLES. Look it up, the two first experiments "proving" Einstein right were total hoaxes, even mainstream pseudoscientists now admit it, but you really believe that these relativist hacks actually found hick's bozoN or gravitational waves without fudging their data?

Then you didn't even read it at all. What they actually did was link to the 5 independent analyses. 4 of those confirm the EHT ring, only one finds something totally different. There is nothing scientific about blindly accepting the outlier, especially when it hasn't been reproduced. But what you and OP are doing is pure confirmation bias, cherrypicking the result which suit your prejudices.

>>
>>16508479
I think they’re stars but we can’t detect their light because the escape velocity is faster than the speed of light due to very strong gravitation.
>>
>>16508531
If the surface is below the radius where light cannot escape (Schwartzchild radius, event horizon), then the star cannot support itself under GR. When you do the calculations you find that inside this radius, not only can light not escape, but nothing can stay at a fixed radius, everything must move inwards.
There is also Buchdahl's theorem, which shows that even when the star shrinks below about 1.5 Schwartzchild radii, that no finite source of pressure would keep the star from collapsing.
Under current physics there is no way for it to just be a normal object below the event horizon. It continues collapsing.

>why can't space bros do anything right?
Daily reminder that everything outside our solar system are blurry shits and flickering small dots of light.

The pictures they show you are literally photoshop and made up somewhere it says that it is an ((((ARTISTS IMPRESSION)))) and we like have 12 or so real pictures of the planets in our solar system when a probe was send there the best space and earth telescopes give us crap.

I have no desire to go to space right now as it is.
a Blue Origin or SpaceX flight would be a waste of time and money imo.
Oh, I can go up just high enough to see the curvature of the Earth? Cool
I'd rather go to Bora Bora

I remember when the Tacoma narrows bridge collapse was the most popular bridge collapse amongst scientists, but these feminist geniuses managed to out do the dead white males who built the Tacoma narrows bridge.

Science operates over decades. News operates on seconds. If you want to get science on the news, then it better be quick, catchy and hype. Peer review be damned if need be. Remember BICEP2?

based on the word salad of copium you just vomited, I'm inclined to side with the Japanese, specially after the simp-show the EHT team has displayed
>>
>>16501936
I say they're not independent, and the first actual independent analysis had completely debunked the EHT image construction
>>
>>16536961
>I say they're not independent
Facts don’t care about your feelings
They are independent. Rejecting multiple independent replications and cherrypicking the one failure is pure bias. Stop trying to pretend this is rational or scientific.

Fags want desperately for black holes to be real because black holes are a big part of their cringey star trek comic book time travel "i'm a science genius" chuunibyo fantasy lives, thats why they always take the bait on stupid 'artistic reconstructions' like the fake pic in OP

Because only idiots study astronomy. You're talking about the same people who launched HST with a fucked up mirror even though it had sat in storage for 4 years before launch giving them plenty of time to double check everything.

>>16541025
and they fixed it. Why do you think the james webb took so long to make and was so overbudget? They tested everything 100x over so they didn't make any silly mistakes like last time. With the complexity of space flight, expecting everything to go right 100% of the time is retarded and absolutely unrealistic.

Why do so many fucking retards visit a science and math board? This thread is an embarrassment to humanity.

I like how the lines don't even match up but they are like "it's in the shadows bro". What makes people think like this? I literally have paranoid schizophrenia and see patterns in almost everything but these people just make shit up in order for their ideas to work.

You can get great pictures of saturn and jupiter with amateur as shit telescopes. You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. the hubble deep field took nearly 2 weeks of exposure to see those galaxies and they are as real as you can get.

and even with those amateur telescopes you can see andromeda easily. It's absolutely massive in the night sky but it's very feint. You can still see it with the naked eye.
>>
>>16523469
>The pictures they show you are literally photoshop and made up somewhere
You people are unbelievably retarded when it comes to photographs of space. Human biological eyes can only see a small section of the electromagnetic spectrum, meaning that for our biological eyes to see those waves of invisible light they have to be represented by other colors we can see with our biological eyes.

Do you get it now?

There's very few of those outside of galaxies to begin with. ESA launched a satellite gaia telescope to look for these but they then retconned the mission statement after it failed to find a single one.

Wrong and wrong. Gaia is an all-sky astrometry mission, a successor to Hipparcos, it was never targeted at anything so specific.
And Gaia data has revealed multiple black holes in binaries, even with only a fraction of the final dataset.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_BH1
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_BH2
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_BH3
Gaia has been a tremendous success, with more than 10 thousand papers published so far. Maybe you should do some research before posting bullshit

>>16542492
And still no alternative explanation for these objects, or the millions of known active galactic nuclei.

publishing replication crisis articles that nobody will ever read isn't a measure of success, its a measure of futility and wastefulness. list some concrete accomplishments
