Question

Refer to the Newsela article, "Doctoral Student Played a Big Part in First Black Hole Photo."

Part A

Which development most contributed to the first photo of a black hole?


the placement of radio telescopes in different parts of the galaxy that take pictures over time

the discovery of new photography methods that can work without light

the invention of the Event Horizon telescope

the creation of an imaging code that combines large amounts of data into one picture
Question 2
Part B

Which evidence supports the answer in Part A?

Select two correct answers.


"The data used to piece together the image was captured by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT).

"Her role was to help build an algorithm which could construct the masses of data collected by the telescope into a single image."

"It is a linked group of eight radio telescopes. They are in locations from Antarctica to Spain."

"The algorithm would later lead to an image of a supermassive black hole in the Messier 87 galaxy being taken for the first time."

Answer 1

Part A's answer would be "the creation of an imaging code that combines large amounts of data into one picture"

Part B's answers are "Her role was to help build an algorithm which could construct the masses of data collected by the telescope into a single image." and "The algorithm would later lead to an image of a supermassive black hole in the Messier 87 galaxy being taken for the first time."

Answer 2

Answer:

For A its                    

The creation of an imaging code that combines large amounts of data into one picture

For B its                    

"Her role was to help build an algorithm which could construct the masses of data collected by the telescope into a single image."

"The algorithm would later lead to an image of a supermassive black hole in the Messier 87 galaxy being taken for the first time."
