First ever Black Hole Picture

Actually, I just read about this and the picture posted earlier is M87, which is actually 53.49 million light years away, so we're actually seeing it as it was just after the dinosaurs became extinct.
Always makes me smile that when we look up we are seeing the past I wonder what’s there now?

Don’t worry about it. Probably not even there anymore.
 
I am sure I read something about the distances involved at a cosmic scale, in shot they explained that if you imagined a light year being the equivilent of an inch then he nearest star after the sun would be a mile away.

In another book i read about some stars having rain fall, if i recall the droplets are obviously not water but a plasma. they estimated that some of the droplets of plasma that fall back to the surface are the size of cities.

The mid boggles
Brolly no good then.
 
What does my head is the infinity of it all. Just cant get my head around there being no end, I mean if there was an edge of space, like a wall of sorts...whats on the other side of that wall? Messes my mind up thinking it goes on and on and on and on and on and on.......

Your last sentence, are you talking about my wife. In fact most of what you say does apply to her as she certainly does my head in.
