Center for Astrophysics The Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian has welcomed two new summer interns thanks to a partnership between the National Society of Black Physicists (NSBP) and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO). Established in 2020, the NSBP/SAO Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Scholars Program awards internships in cutting-edge black hole research to early career physicists from underrepresented backgrounds. The paid internships are awarded competitively and last 8-10 weeks. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all interns will work remotely this year. The internship includes mentorship opportunities with expert astrophysicists and members of the EHT collaboration, the international consortium of astronomers responsible for capturing the first image of a black hole in 2019.
