Scientists on Wednesday revealed the first image ever made of a black hole.

科學家周三透露了第一張黑洞造像。

Assembling data gathered by eight radio telescopes around the world, astronomers created the picture showing the violent neighborhood around a super massive black hole, the light-sucking monsters of the universe theorized by Einstein more than a century ago and confirmed by observations for decades.

世界各地八個射電望遠鏡收集的數據匯集在一起??，天文學家創造的圖片展示了一個超大質量黑洞周圍的暴力鄰域，一個多世紀以前由愛因斯坦理論化的宇宙中的吸光怪物，經過幾十年的觀測證實。

It looked like a flaming orange, yellow and black ring.

它看起來像一個火紅的橙色，黃色和黑色的戒指。

"We have seen what we thought was unseeable. We have seen and taken a picture of a black hole. Here it is," said Sheperd Doeleman of Harvard.

“我們已經看到了我們認為不可見的東西。我們已經看到并拍攝了一張黑洞照片。就在這里，”哈佛大學的Sheperd Doeleman說道。

Jessica Dempsey, a co-discoverer and deputy director of the East Asian Observatory in Hawaii, said it reminded her of the powerful flaming Eye of Sauron from the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

夏威夷東亞天文臺的共同發現者和副主任杰西卡·登普西說，這讓她想起了“指環王”三部曲中強大的燃燒之眼索倫。

Unlike smaller black holes that come from collapsed stars, super massive black holes are mysterious in origin. Situated at the center of most galaxies, including ours, they are so dense that nothing, not even light, can escape their gravitational pull. This one's "event horizon" - the point of no return around it, where light and matter begin to fall inexorably into the abyss - is as big as our entire solar system.

不像來自坍縮恒星的小黑洞，超大質量黑洞的起源是神秘的。它們位于包括我們在內的大多數星系的中心，它們非常密集，沒有任何東西，甚至光線都不能逃脫它們的引力。這個人的“事件視界” - 周圍沒有回歸的地方，光和物質開始無情地落入深淵 - 與我們整個太陽系一樣大。
