James Woods, who attended the Massachuttes Institute of Technology before leaving “a few months early to pursue a career in acting,” congratulated his alma mater and all of the other scientist involved in yesterday’s amazing image of a black hole:

Yesterday’s construction of the black hole will go down as one of mankind’s truly extraordinary achievements. The fact that it was predicted by Einstein, imagined by Luminet and others, and captured by this team across the world is staggering. (Bravo to #MIT, my alma mater!) https://t.co/AiMs0mh30G — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) April 11, 2019
