Imagine you are looking into space. You see a small group of stars, and pinpoint where they are. Then you come back a short time later, and you'll see that they moved, and not only that, but all of them in the same circular motion. The star that was on the top might now be on the right. The center of this circle is very likely a black hole. These stars are going around that point so fast that the gravity must be extremely strong, and only black holes have such gravitational pull on other masses.
