As we've seen this Black Hole Week, black holes have gone from theory to image, from mysteries to measurements. Now, the EHT is entering a new era, where more telescopes around the world — and maybe in space — will capture time-lapse “movies” of black holes. Popcorn, anyone?🎥🍿

This simulation shows a black hole image in total intensity (or ‘normal’ light, left) and in circular polarization (right). The blue and red colors of the circular polarization movie correspond to light rotating clockwise and counterclockwise, respectively. Credit: Angelo Ricarte
