No, dark matter is quite a different kind of thing. A dark hole may have absorbed some dark matter, but pressumably that would become indistinguishable from the normal matter, once it gets crushed by the enormous gravity of the black hole.

Black holes can be considered the densest objects in the universe, but it is debatable as to whether a black hole's singularity qualifies as a material.

At the moment a black hole is the densist "object" known.

What is the heaven and earth made out of?

If by "heaven" you mean outer space, it is made up of the same 90 elements or so that are found on Earth. However, in outer space there is also matter that is not made up of atoms - including black holes, dark matter, and dark energy.If by "heaven" you mean a metaphysical heaven, as in what expects us in the afterlife - well, nobody really knows.


Is the universe matter?

What are black holes and how are they made?

Black holes are the closest thing known the have put a rip in time and space. We do not actually know what a black hole is made out of because we can not observe past the event horizon where light can not escape due to the black holes gravitational force. You could say that a black hole when it is not "feeding" is made of pure force, it has been theorised that black holes are partly made up of radiation. But than again it is just a star that has imploded.


Why black hole have gravitational pull?

You bet they do! Black holes can have only three properties:mass - this creates the gravitational pull and is a property of every black holespin - this will likely be a property of any stellar black hole as all stars spincharge - this will be a rare property as it will attract opposite charge and soon be canceled


Are black holes terrestrial or gas planets or something else?

Black holes are black holes - they are totally different from anything else in the universe. Most black holes are formed from the collapsed cores of dead stars. There are supermassive black holes in most galaxies, but it is no known how they formed.

Are all black holes made of dark matter?

Would black holes made of dark matter seem different from other black holes?

I think that's unlikely. The only relevant features of black holes are its mass, electric charge, and rotational momentum. What makes dark matter different to baryonic ("normal") matter is that it doesn't interact with normal matter, except through gravity - so it seems that none of the differences would be relevant, once such matter is converted to a black hole.

Is the milky way made of stars?

The Milky Way has a lot of stars, but not only that. There is also dust, gas, black holes... and an estimated 80% of the Milky Way's mass is made up of dark matter, meaning that nobody knows what it is really made of.


What composed galaxy?
