"It's not just some cheap picture of, 'We understand black holes better,'" Johnson told Space.com. This megascope has been observing two supermassive black holes. Watching that "movie" could reveal key but elusive insights about black holes and the nature of gravity, the researchers said. "Once you know these two parameters about the system, we think you know everything there is to know about the black hole," Johnson said.
