Seeing the unseeable

Another step towards getting to know the universe better has finally been engraved in the sands of time (Page 1, “From theory to fact” and “Capturing a trap where matter, space and time come to an end”, both April 11). It marks yet another milestone achieved by collaborative efforts and directed human potential.

From the time Albert Einstein proposed his general theory of relativity and existence of black holes, an unseeable frontier has captivated the human mind. Now that there is photographic evidence, it makes it all the more real and fascinating. The achievement is a new jewel to add to our crown of human achievements. I look forward to more such discoveries.
