First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI. The Shadow and Mass of the Central Black Hole

evidence

Relates the measured ring diameter to the mass of M87*, giving approximately six and a half billion solar masses and testing the shadow prediction of general relativity. V55 VERIFICATION BASIS: not consulted in session; no research tool was available. Volume and article number are from recall; the quoted mass uncertainty is not reproduced in this pack.

A evidence is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
