A supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A* (yes, the asterisk is part of it!) sits at the center of the Milky Way. Now, for the first time, we can see it. The resulting direct image of Sagittarius A*, revealed this week, was made possible by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) array and the Frontera supercomputer at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC).
