Technically, you can't "see" a black hole, since no light can escape from it, therefore the light cannot reach your eyes.

It is a hole because it brings things inside of it, but it's all black so you can't see anything.


Can you see a video of the black hole in space?

While there are no direct videos of black holes in space, astronomers have used telescopes to capture images of the matter surrounding black holes, known as the black hole's accretion disk. These images help us study black holes and their properties, but we cannot directly see the black hole itself due to its nature of trapping light.

No. The gravitational field of a black hole is so great that electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum does not escape from them. Therefore, you couldn't directly see a black hole regardless of where you were in the universe.


If nothing can escape a black hole in outer space how can you see photos of a black hole?

The answer is, you cannot see photos of a black hole. You are quite right; not even light can escape a black hole's incredible gravity, so all black holes are completely invisible. It is possible, however, to see long trails of matter that is being pulled into a black hole. The way we detect black holes from earth, however, is by picking up the gamma rays that they emit.


Can you see a black hole in outer space?

Not directly. If large amounts of matter is falling into the black hole it will heat up and glow brightly. You could also potentially see the distortion of light around the black hole, but you'd have to get pretty close to see that.
