In April 2019 and May 2022, the EHTC (Event Horizon Telescope collaboration) released the black hole shadow images of the M87 and our Milky Way galaxy, respectively. The EHTC has more than 300 members from different backgrounds and countries. The EHT is a huge, very long baseline interferometer (VLBI), which is different from optical telescopes in that a lot of computation is required to obtain a single image. I have been involved in the project as a data scientist and collaborated with EHTC members to develop a new imaging method. In this talk, he will explain how the new imaging technique has been developed and how the final images were created.
