Illustration shows accretion disk of matter (orange cloud) and jets of speeding particles (white swirls) that scientists think surround a black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Inset shows a computer simulation of matter swirling around the black hole, with red indicating brighter emission and bluer coloring representing dimmer light. Orange circle denotes comparative size of Sagittarius A* measured by new observations, which is smaller than previous measurements. Credit: MIT/NASA/CXC/Johns Hopkins/U. Illinois
