Black hole described as 'monster'
A Manx astronomer says the first image of a black hole in space, is an historic moment.
Howard Parkin of AstroManx says as well as an incredible feat, the image also proves Einstein was right.
The black hole measures 40 billion kilometres across - three million times the size of the Earth - and has been described by scientists as "a monster".
Mr Parkin says it has many implications:
Police 'respect' death by dangerous driving acquittal
Constabulary asks for privacy of family to be respected
Bank to withdraw three ATMs
There has been a series of ATMs withdrawn across the Island in recent years
Long closed pub could have a future
It was bought by government in 2007
