Researchers at Cambridge announced plans to capture a moving image of a supermassive black hole, a step scientists say would accelerate understanding of accretion, jets and relativistic dynamics. The team aims to coordinate global observatories and computational resources to produce time-resolved imaging rather than a single-frame snapshot. The effort will require new instrumentation, international collaboration and research funding—an agenda that matters to university astronomy departments, grant offices and graduate training programs in astrophysics.
