      Wouldn’t it be hilarious to discover in the distant future that some astronomical object just happens to look blurry even at perfect resolution because the object is just blurry in appearance?

      It’s not quite an image of what you would see with your eyes. The lines are based on the polarization of the light.

      Soon enough the pictures will be clear enough to show that the supermassive object at the center of the universe is in fact your mom.
