An angular size for the compact radio source at the galactic centerSimultaneous very-long-baseline (100 million wavelengths) and intermediate-baseline (4 million wavelengths) interferometer observations at a wavelength of 3.7 cm in 1976.2 show that the galactic-center compact radio source has a linear size of approximately 140 AU. The observations also set an upper limit of about 0.1 Jy to the emission from any core of size less than roughly 10 AU at that epoch. The total flux density of the compact source was slightly higher than the value reported previously.
