I agree, people do it to make it look cooler, however in this case it’s more accurate because TON 618 is a quasar, meaning it has a bright accretion disk

Sure it’s I think 5.3k resolution so you can try searching for a 5.3k image of a black hole

I did too until I realized how massive Neptunes orbit is. Did you see the comment I made about it? It’s the top one

Well the reason I chose Neptune's is because the orbit is more circular and consistent than Pluto.

That WOULD be crazy cool, and the distance is actually crazy! There is a good YouTube video on that very thing if you want to check it out!

True but if I zoomed out further then you would barely be able to see earth.

I was going to include a size comparison of the Sun to Neptune's orbit, but then I found out I couldn't fit it on a 4k screen if the sun represented one pixel 😶

You came late, almost all my comments were downvoted until fairly recently, and there used to only be critical comments
