黑洞是我们所知的极限。为了探索知识的边缘,视界望远镜将世界各地的天文台连接起来,模拟一个地球大小的仪器。借助这一工具,该团队追踪了有史以来第一张黑洞图片,从而在2019年4月获得了一张数十亿人看到的图像。与此同时,霍金和他的团队攻击了理论物理核心的黑洞悖论——即使在这些空间和时间的大规模扭曲中,预测定律仍然有效吗?将它们编织在一起是第三条线索,使用富有表现力的动画进行哲学和探索。《边缘》是一部在最高水平上实践科学的电影,在这部电影中,观察、理论和哲学结合起来,以把握这些最神秘的物体。(机译)
Black holes stand at the limit of what we can know. To explore that edge of knowledge, the Event Horizon Telescope links observatories across the world to simulate an earth-sized instrument. With this tool the team pursues the first-ever picture of a black hole, resulting in an image seen by billions of people in April 2019. Meanwhile, Hawking and his team attack the black hole paradox at the heart of theoretical physics-Do predictive laws still function, even in these massive distortions of space and time? Weaving them together is a third strand, philosophical and exploratory using expressive animation. "Edge" is about practicing science at the highest level, a film where observation, theory, and philosophy combine to grasp these most mysterious objects.
