Thank you to Michael and Sera for an extremely interesting and educational discussion. We publish detailed descriptions of our methods as well as raw data, data products, and analysis scripts to facilitate transparency, rigor, and reproducibility. Black holes effectively observe elementary particles, an effect. We tried hard to keep our discussion to one hour.and failed! We instead tackled a variety of topics relating to the paper itself, the Event Horizon Telescope (and when we might see an image of the black hole at the centre of our Galaxy), active galactic nuclei jets more generally and the community behind the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration. The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration (EHTC) welcomes critical, independent analysis and interpretation of our published results. New calculations suggest that the event horizons will eventually decohere quantum possibilitieseven those that are far away. In the video above you will see a discussion between Michael Janssen, the lead author of the study, Sera Markoff, Vice Chair of the Science Council of the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration and co-author of the paper, May Chiao, the chief editor of Nature Astronomy and myself. These observations can tell us something about the internal structure of the jet and reveal something about the potential location of the supermassive black hole in Cen A. In a paper appearing in Nature Astronomy today, Michael Janssen and collaborators use t he Event Horizon Telescope to detect a highly-collimated, asymmetrically edge-brightened jet at millimetre wavelengths in the active galaxy Centaurus A.
