Black holes are the remains of a giant star that has had its gravity collapse upon itself. Black holes suck in any matter that gets within it's gravitational range and smashes it down into tiny particles. It goes inside the black hole of it and is never seen again. Scientists do not know what happens after the matter is sucked in because black holes do not illuminate any light (Its gravity is so strong it pulls in light around it that would normally reveal it). Black holes are identified by a check list of characteristics. (Super massive, Rogue, etc)
