Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) provides the finest angular resolution of all astronomical observation techniques. However, observations with Earth-based instruments are approaching fundamental limits on angular resolution. These can only be overcome by placing at least

The black hole Sagittarius A∗ (Sgr A∗) is a prime target for next-generation Earth-space very long baseline interferometry missions such as the Black Hole Explorer (BHEX), which aims to probe baselines on the order of 20 Gλ. At these baselines, Sgr A∗ observations will be affecte

Observing supermassive black holes
Toward optimisation of a spaceborne VLBI mission
Very long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) provides the finest angular resolution of all astronomical observation techniques. The Earth-based Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has demonstrated this in recent years with the landmark achievement of resolving the shadows of the supermassi
