The R-magnitude

I am lucky to be a co-author on a fantastic publication by Ryan W. Pfeifle (George Mason University) of the detection of a triple AGN system.  The paper can be found here.

Detection of a triple AGN in a late-stage merger (Ryan W. Pfeifle, George Mason University).

The first ever image of a black hole has been captured by the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration (https://eventhorizontelescope.org/).  Add this to the long list of things Einstein was right about.  Amazing!
