Computer scientist Katie Bouman, who began developing an algorithm to process data from the Event Horizon Telescope as an MIT graduate student, presses the Enter key to start the program running. Other members of the imaging team also work with the data to try to produce a consistent, singular image of the black hole at center of the galaxy Messier 87.

The whole scene is captured in the above clip from the Smithsonian Channel documentary "Black Hole Hunters," which premieres Friday.
