Masanori Iye receives the 2010 Toray Prize in Science and Technology at The Industry Club of Japan in Tokyo from Toray Science Foundation President Katsunosuke Maeda. The prize recipients were announced in 2010, but the earthquake and tsunami disaster that struck Japan in March 2011 postponed the ceremony.
The orbits of stars in the Galactic center. The current data from the Keck telescope with adaptive optics reveal the presence of a four million solar mass black hole in the center of the Milky Way.
TMT’s observations, simulated here, will even allow us to understand the physics of spacetime around a black hole. Courtesy of A. Ghez and the UCLA Galactic Center Group
