A few signs point to the U.S. NSF and EHT planning to reveal an image of our local black hole. For one, the event says that the groundbreaking results pertain to the “center of our galaxy.” The announcement may not talk about a black hole in particular, but one of the links on the page is “Exploring Black Holes | Beta site for NSF - National Science Foundation” — implying that this could really be it. If that proves true, we may be mere days away from seeing Sagittarius A* for the first time.

This seemingly unprecedented announcement will take place on May 12, 2022, starting at 9 a.m. EDT. Although this is an in-person event, it will also be streamed live at the link above, as well as on the official Facebook page for the U.S. National Science Foundation. During the event, multiple experts will be speaking, including research scientists, astrophysicists, and professors from some of the most prominent organizations in the country, such as the NSF itself, MIT, Harvard, Caltech, and the University of Arizona.
