A black hole can also be called a bottomless gravity well.
It can be considered a hole because it has what is called an "event horizon" and when something crosses that "event horizon" it ceases to interact with this universe any longer and can never return.
All objects with mass create a gravity well, ordinarily the surface of the object is the bottom of this gravity well. If an object has "too much" mass inside a given volume of space it will collapse in on itself, forming a singularity of infinite density inside an "event horizon", making the gravity well bottomless as it no longer has a defined surface.
A full understanding of black holes requires a detailed study of general relativity, which is beyond the scope of this site.

Does a black hole have billions of stars in it?
No. A black hole intakes matter. After it is broken down by gravity. Then it releases it as particles (Neutrinos for example) There is not another universe within a black hole. Nor do stars or matter stay within the black hole. Of course all of this is theory with some really fun math attached to it.
What happens if a black hole runs into another black hole?
They will merge to form a single black hole with the combined mass of the town that merged.
Is it possible for a black hole near us?
Not really.
Can you walk inside a black hole?
No you really cant walk inside a black hole, you only float then you die shortly
A black hole is a hole ripped in space through another sector in thin multi diminsianol place through time and space and gravity it then would a hole riped in space would stop light therefore stopping?
The term black hole is a misnomer that implies the notion of a hole; there is no hole, so there is no hole foe light to escape into another multidimensional place. A black hole is a spherical volume of immense gravitational attraction. The interface presented towards the outside world, called the event horizon is not really a physical boundary: it's merely the point beyond which not even light can hope to escape the gravitational pull of the black hole.
Can a black hole get sucked up by another black hole?
That's not exactly what happens. What really happens is that they just absorb each other and become a bigger black hole.
What happens when a black hole forms in a black hole?
A black hole can't really form inside of another black hole. If you think of a black hole forming after a star goes supernova, then there isn't really a star to go supernove inside of the already created black hole. In fact, there isn't even any space inside of the blak hole for anything to happen. Two black holes can join together, but they wil eventually go to one.
Who is anis ansari?
it is really your hole the black one it is really your hole the black one
What existed before the creation of the universe if a singularity is not a black hole?
Well, a singularity is part of a black hole. Although no-one really knows what existed before, a likely explanation is that every black hole contains another universe. So when our black hole was created, we were too.
Did black hole creats another star?
A black hole does not create a star. A black hole is formed when a star dies.

Can one black hole suck up another one?
Yes, it is possible for a black hole to capture another one and "swallow" it.
Does a black hole rip you to shreds?
If you get very close to a black hole you will get spaghettified or in another words black hole will rip you to shreds because gravity of black hole is so immense that even light can't escaped from it .
How does the black hole relate to physics?
A black hole relates to physics, because it "bends" the laws of physics. Noone really knows what a black hole does. It bends the law of gravitation (a black hole has way too much gravity).
Can the sun form a black hole and take earth to another galaxy If yes how I no why not?
No. The sun does not have enough mass to form a black hole. A black hole does not lead to another galaxy. Anything pulled into a black hole becomes part of that black hole's mass. Even then, if Earth were to fall into a black hole the same mass as the sun it would be torn apart by tidal forces long before it crossed the event horizon.
Is it possible for a black hole near us?
Not really.
