A Year Beyond the Horizon: Advancing Our Understanding of M87* with New EHT Observations.

In this presentation, we introduce the first follow-up Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of M87*, taken a year after the epoch-making first image. The enhanced imaging, facilitated by additional antennas, increased data rates, and new imaging techniques, not only provides greater detail but also enables us to study the dynamics of the black hole within a year. Due to the embargo, specific results are not included in this abstract, but will be disclosed in a press release scheduled for January 18 at 08:00 UT, just hours before this talk, enabling a detailed exploration of these findings and their contribution to our understanding of black hole physics.
