technically, we do not know whether black holes are real.

theoretically, they are completely possible.

scientist believe that they have seen on but are not sure.

if real, the largest one originate from larger stars

Where is outer space's biggest black hole?

The largest black holes are supermassive black holes - the black holes at the center of galaxies. The largest known such black hole has somewhere between 20 and 40 billion times the mass of our Sun. It's hard to know which of the observed black holes is really the largest (i.e., the most massive one), since the mass estimates in each individual case are currently not very accurate.


How big is the largest black hole known?

The most relevant quantity is the black hole's mass. Note that the black hole's diameter (the diameter of the event horizon, really) is directly proportional to its mass. The largest galactic black holes known seem to be around 20 billion solar masses. Check the Wikipedia "List of most massive black holes" for more details. Note that the mass of some of these black holes is not very well-known.
