Today brings us a beautiful new image of M87 by a team led by Lia Medeiros (@astronolia) along with BH PIRE members at Georgia Tech (@Feryal_Ozel and @DimitriosPSALT1) and NOIRLab (@TodLauer). “Fuzzy donut” no more thanks to their new ML technique, named PRIMO.

Looking at how the light is polarized allows astronomers to map the magnetic field lines present at the inner edge of the M87 black hole. And for an explanation beyond your sunglasses... https://t.co/uxbAuUsngp
