1. How are these two images similar? 2. How are they different? 3. The top picture is from a galaxy that is 55 million light years away from Earth. What does that mean? It was captured because of Katie Bouman. Three years ago, as a graduate student, she developed a crucial algorithm to help create the image! The team of 200 researchers used her method to gather of all the necessary bits of light to form the picture. More evidence of women in science and the importance of sharing scientific research! The image, of a lopsided ring of light surrounding a dark circle deep in the heart of a galaxy known as Messier 87, some 55 million light-years away from Earth,
