TL;DR: Observations at a wavelength of 1.3 mm set a size of microarcseconds on the intrinsic diameter of Sagittarius A*, suggesting that the bulk of Sgr A* emission may not be centred on the black hole, but arises in the surrounding accretion flow.

TL;DR: Radio interferometry observations of the elliptical galaxy M87 are reported that spatially resolve the base of the jet in this source, suggesting that the M87 jet is powered by an accretion disk in a prograde orbit around a spinning black hole.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 1.3 mm very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) was used to study Sagittarius A*, a black hole candidate at the Galactic center.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on 1.3 mm phase information on Sgr A* obtained with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) on a total of 13 observing nights over four years.

Imaging an Event Horizon: submm-VLBI of a Super Massive Black Hole

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the science case for mm/submm VLBI observations of both SgrA* and M87 (a radio loud AGN of a much more luminous class that sgrA*) and emphasize that the technical path forward is clear, and the recent successful observations have removed much of the risk that would normally be associated with such an ambitious project.
