13 Stars often occur in pairs revolving around their common center of mass If one of the stars is a black hole it is visible Explain how the existence of such a black hole might be inferred from?
Einstein's theory of the fabric of space that each planet has its own gravity that makes an indention the fabric of space depending on the amount of gravity, well a black hole is an infinite indention.
Who was the first astronomer to present irrefutable evidence of the existence of a black hole?
Charles Thomas Bolton
Which event may signal the development of a new black hole?
The only event that we know of, that might result in a black hole, is a Type II supernova.
Can a black hole destroy matter?
Yes - The dense nature of a black hole rearranges and transforms matter into energy. In fact, even before matter crosses the threshold of the black hole's event horizon, the accretion disk of a black hole provides for a formidal barrier. Despite its invisible interior, the presence of a black hole can be inferred through its interaction with other matter and with electromagnetic radiation such as light. Matter falling onto a black hole can form an accretion disk heated by friction, forming some of the brightest objects in the universe.
Are black holes in space?
Yes, that's where they are. A black hole on Earth would utterly destroy the Earth, in a very short time.The existence of black holes is now generally accepted, by the way.

What has actually been seen by Astronomers?
A black hole, exoplanets. It has always been inferred.
Is a black hole math?
No. A black hole is an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity, creating a region of distorted time and space from which nothing, not even light can escape. The concept of a black hole was first introduced in using the mathematics of Einstein's general relativity and the properties of black holes have been inferred using the same mathematics. The first strong physical evidence for the existence of black holes was not found until more than 50 years after the idea was introduced.
Where is miniature black hole present?
The existence of miniature black holes have not been confirmed yet. It has been hypothesized that there may be some, that formed during the Big Bang. If they did form, we might see flashes from the disintegration of those black holes, now and then. (A miniature black hole takes much less time to disintegrate than a bigger one.)The existence of miniature black holes have not been confirmed yet.

How do we detect a black hole if we can't see it?
Black holes are not detected, but rather their existence is inferred from observed phenomena which are attributed to the strong gravitational pull of a black hole. They remain a theoretical construct, however, as these phenomena can also be explained by taking account of forces other than just gravity, like electromagnetism, i.e. the forces that result from the separation of electric charge in plasma (see 2nd related link). The black hole hypothesis has problems like the lack of any gravitational lensing of the stars that orbit the supposed black hole at the centre of our galaxy. Also, some scientists have come to the conclusion that it would be impossible for a black hole to ever form in the first place (see related link).

Which of these is one likely to encounter in deep space black truffle black algae black hole black coffee?
The effect of the existence of black holes is supported by observational evidence. There have as yet been no observations that would support the existence of the other items on this list.
Is there a black hole on the Earth?
It's highly unlikely, as we would have detected it. Micro black holes are physically possible but their existence hasn't been confirmed. One could safely say, that there is no black hole on the Earth and the nearest black hole is a safe, 1,600 light years from us.
What might be inside a black hole?
Nothing but light
How galaxy came into existence?
The galaxy was formed from the attraction of stars which in our galaxy orbit a massive black hole.
Is there life in a black hole?
There might be because a black hole has Hydrogen and Helium. These chemicals have bacteria and bacteria is a living thing. So there might be, I'm not saying there is totally.
When was the first black hole?
The first black hole was probably after the first population III star exploded about 13.1 billion years ago. One of which might be the black hole at the centre of our galaxy.
