"and I feel like we are just getting started"
I think once we have enough telescopes on the moon, free space or in earth orbit, then things might get on another level.
I mean, this is pretty amazing:
"The international collaboration is working to capture the most detailed black hole images ever obtained by creating a virtual Earth-sized telescope. Supported by considerable international investment, the EHT links existing telescopes using novel systems — creating a fundamentally new instrument with the highest angular resolving power that has yet been achieved."
But I imagine without the atmosphere in the way, things might be quite easier and clearer.
