At 8:28 in "How to Understand What Black Holes Look Like" by Veritassium. (Wikipedia won't let me link the video)
Derek from veritassium talks about how one side of the image will look brighter than the other because of the spin of the acretion disk. And shows a more accurate simulation of the interstellar black hole.
But to me, I would just expect 1 kinda lump where it's brighter on that one side. But in the Sagittarius A* photo there are 3 bright spots.
Even the M87 photo kinda looks like 2 bright spots instead of just 1 like I would expect. 2600:100C:B257:C80E:4928:A5B1:2F28:FE4E ( talk) 16:05, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
