No. Matter gets torn apart as it approaches a black hole. The mass itself is a singularity, which has no volume. It is debatable whether or not this can een be considered matter.

Does every galaxy contain a black hole?

No, not every galaxy contains a black hole. While many galaxies do have a supermassive black hole at their center, there are also galaxies that do not have a black hole.


What are some theories about the contents of a black hole?

A black hole contains a large amount of matter, compressed in an incredibly small space.


Does the universe have a black hole?

The universe likely contains millions upon millions of black holes.


Would one cubic light year of water form a black hole?

No, one cubic light year of water would not form a black hole because the mass of the water would not be dense enough to collapse into a black hole. The density of water is much lower than what is required for a black hole to form.


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.


Is a black hole truly a vacuum, or does it contain matter and energy that we have yet to fully understand?

A black hole is not a true vacuum, as it contains matter and energy that we do not fully understand.


What is the largest named black hole?

OJ 287. This is a binary pair of black holes. It contains the most massive black hole known, with a mass estimated at 18 billion solar masses.


How big is a black hole and what factors determine its size?

A black hole's size is determined by its mass, which is the amount of matter it contains. The more mass a black hole has, the larger its size. The size of a black hole is typically measured by its event horizon, which is the point of no return where gravity is so strong that not even light can escape. The event horizon's size is directly related to the mass of the black hole.

How does a black hole not have volume if it contains no space how can it exist?

The premise of the question is faulty: a black hole is a star with a diameter less than the Chandrasekhar diameter. The body within the black hole can have a range of sizes depending on the mass of the object and its degree of compression. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrasekhar_limit


Is the universe inside a black hole?

No, the universe is not inside a black hole. Black holes are regions of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape from them. The universe is much larger and contains many galaxies, stars, and planets, including black holes.


If the core of a supernova explosion contains three or more solar masses of matter the core will most likely become a what?

If the core of a supernova explosion contains three or more solar masses of matter, it will most likely become a black hole. The gravitational force is so strong that the core collapses into a singularity, forming a black hole.
