Summary

Description
English: Now moving at 62% the speed of light (416 million mph, 670 million kph), the camera more obviously shows the effect of Doppler boosting, brightening features in the direction of motion at the center of the image. In this all-sky view, a warped image of the background sky is visible between the disk and the photon rings, but look closely. The Magellanic Clouds are visible both at center and at right as fainter, distorted images. The camera is about 10 million miles (16 million km) from the black hole’s event horizon.Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/J. Schnittman and B. Powell
