Who discovered the black hole or how was the black hole discovered?
Your use of "the" black hole seems to indicate that you are thinking about one specific black hole. Please clarify which one - there are several known black holes, discovered at different times.
What is a good black hole candidate?
Read the Wikipedia article on "List of black holes". There you'll find a list of black holes and black hole candidates.
Where is the hole in the ozone layer situated and when was it first discovered?
The ozone hole is mostly over Antarctica. It was first discovered in 1984.
Where were black holes discovered?
1916, Albert Einstein came up with the theory about Black Hole.
Who identified Cygnus X-1 as the first black hole?
Although predicted theoretically long before, credit for discovery of the first strong black hole candidate through astronomical observation in the x-ray binary system of Cygnus X-1 goes to Bolton, Murdin, and Webster in 1972.
Who discovered the first black hole Einstein or Karl?

Was the black hole discovered 400 years ago?
No. The idea of a black hole was first proposed in 1783, 230 years ago. The first observations believed to indicate the presence of a black hole were in 1964.
Where was the first black hole?
The very first black hole is believed to have likely accompanied events in the early universe where matter first formed from the tremendous energies from the big bang; such are referred to as primordial black holes. There isn't direct evidence for them nor details about their location but theoretical modelling suggests they exist. The first strong black hole candidate discovered from Earth around 1972 was in Cygnus X-1, which is an X-ray binary source; verification included trips to the upper atmosphere and observation outside the atmosphere.

When was the first ozone hole discovered over Antarctica?
The first ozone hole was discovered in 1985. It was a breakthrough.
Did something ever get sucked into a black hole?
Yes. Matter falls into black holes all the time; the first known black hole was the "Cygnus X1" black hole, which was discovered by the X-ray emissions caused by matter being pulled off the companion star and falling into the black hole.
How was the super massive black hole discovered?
Which one?
Where is the hole in the ozone layer situated and when was it first discovered?
The ozone hole is mostly over Antarctica. It was first discovered in 1984.
How is gravity related to black holes?
it is said that there are black holes in space which we have discovered is true and how gravity realates to a black hole is well, a black hole is said to suck away other universes we have not discovered yet gravity pulls things to the ground and a black hole uses that same pull force to suck in universes
Which is the largest black hole?
The largest discovered black hole is a quazar named OJ287, and it has an estimated mass of 18 billion suns! WOW!
Where was the worst black hole?
One candidate for the title might be the supermassive black hole in the NGC 1277 galaxy in the constellation Perseus, weighing in at around 17 billion solar masses, the largest or heaviest discovered to date. However, use of the word "worst" might be a bit subjective - some might call it the "best".
