Scientists harness machine learning to enhance first-ever black hole image

A team of researchers has used machine learning to refine the first photograph of a black hole. In a report published recently in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, it was revealed that the updated image shows a narrower ring of light and matter surrounding the black hole at the center of Messier 87, a galaxy located more than 53 million light years away from Earth.
