There’s a missing museum in Berlin. In 1886, on what was then Königgrätzer Str, a magnificent building opened its doors to the public: the Royal Museum of Ethnology.

BEHOLD: the first view of the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, Sgr A*, in polarized light from the EHT, showing that it has a structured magnetic field! This is surprising because, although a magnetic field was found around the first image SMBH, M87*, that SMBH is 6.5 BILLION times the mass of the sun, while Sgr A* is just 4 million solar masses. This tells us that magnetic fields are common around black holes. Magnetic fields power jets around SMBH, which spew out material being accreted onto the SMBH from their poles. This finding, then, tells us there may be a hidden jet we've not yet seen in Sgr A*!
The EHT is set to observe Sgr A* again this April. Additionally, upcoming upgrades and missions will observe the photon ring around SMBHs in incredible detail in the next decade, so there's much more to come!! 😀 – at Los Angeles, CA

Fun fact: 100 years ago today, the Ottoman Caliphate was abolished. Its last heir, Ertugrul Osman, moved to NYC in 1939 and lived in a rent-controlled unit on the Upper West Side until his death in 2009. His wife, Zeynep Hanim, is an Afghan princess. The rent was $390 per month.
