In polarized light, a side-by-side image of supermassive black holes M87* and Sagittarius A* reveals similar magnetic field structures. This suggests universal features governing how black holes feed and launch jets.

#ICYMI: A recent #EHT image reveals strong magnetic fields spiraling from Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at our galaxy’s center. These fields resemble those around the M87 galaxy’s black hole, suggesting commonality among black holes. A hidden jet in Sagittarius A* is also hinted at.
