Centre of our Galaxy. Sagittarius A

By now you have heard about the image capture of our own black hole.

Tonight it is clear and it is in full view (3am the Moon has fcked off).

Why not train our scopes and have a look?

RA 17h 45m 0s Dec -29 01 28 Or thereabouts.

Just for fun...

Hmmm,

That Sag A was my guess for Webb's first image due out later next month (hopefully)...

Begs the question what Webb's glam object will be, to set the tone for 10+years of scientific research...

Oldest maybe?
