This is comparable to the wind, in that you can't see it, but you know it is there. You can conclude that there is something, for example, by watching trees or other things moving in the wind.

In the case of a black hole, the effects of its gravity can be seen quite clearly.

Did black holes exist in 1999?

Black holes did exist in 1999, and long before that. While black holes cannot be observed directly, they have been hinted at having existed by Einstein. The first real recording of the side effects of a Black hole was in 1971.


Where are the micro black holes located?

It isn't known whether micro black holes - usually called primordial black holes - exist at all. If they do exist, they can be at any random location of space.


Will black holes exist?

There is a lot of evidence that they do, indeed, exist.


Do mini black holes exist?

yes. some black holes are predicted to be the size of an electron.


After whom are non-rotating black holes named?

Schwarzschild black holes. Named after the scientist who proved mathematically black holes can exist.


Where in the galaxy was the black hole?

black holes cannot be detected directly since the gravitational force is so huge it sucks in even the light. in fact, there's no definitive proof that black holes actually exist at all. what we are able to detect directly are the effects of celestial bodies circling a powerful and invisible center. That said, it is assumed that there are black holes in the center of every galaxy i cannot assure they are actually "black"..or that they are "holes" though


Can black holes be distroyed?

No they cannot.


What do black holes do after they form?

After a black hole forms, it continues to exist in space, exerting a strong gravitational pull on surrounding matter. Anything that gets too close to a black hole, including light, cannot escape its gravitational grasp and is consumed. Black holes can continue to grow in size by absorbing matter and merging with other black holes.


What is the scientific consensus on Stephen Hawking's assertion that black holes don't exist?

The scientific consensus does not support Stephen Hawking's assertion that black holes do not exist. Black holes are widely accepted in the scientific community based on observational evidence and theoretical predictions.


What is the width of the black hole?

Black holes, or singularties, apparently exist in different sizes.


What are the implications for your world if black hole do exist?

None at all.Black holes do exist. They have been observed.


If scientists cannot see black holes and do not know for certain that they exist why might studying them be important?

The assumptions are not quite correct.Scientists CAN see black holes. In fact, black holes are among the brightest objects in the Universe. Of course, light can't escape from WITHIN the black hole; rather, what we see is the accretion disk. Also, scientists are PRETTY SURE that black holes are real. As to why it is important: Black holes are fascinating objects by themselves. They also seem to play an important role in galaxy formation.
