The Powehi meme refers to the first-ever direct image of a black hole’s event horizon, captured by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) and released in April 2019. Depicting the supermassive black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy, the image quickly went viral due to its blurry, glowing orange appearance. While a massive scientific breakthrough, the internet immediately compared it to a 'forbidden donut,' the Eye of Sauron, or low-resolution video game graphics. It is commonly used in 'Expectation vs. Reality' comparisons or to represent something that is highly anticipated but appears visually underwhelming to the untrained eye.
