Virgo Orange

About right.

The speed of the black hole as it nears light

Remained no match for astrophysicists

Who snapped the shot of the Virgo orange, bright.

Their thorough work stood as the blessed gist.

Surrounded by an orange glow which bleeds,

The photo shows that the theories were true.

White spots looked like the drops of orange seeds.

The move gave the scientists their just due.

At six point five billion solar masses

The Virgo black hole could swallow up all

Of the solids, liquids, and gasses.

The pic was a lasting reach out and call.

All of the scientists should take a bow

The question remains: what snapshot now?
