The closest known black hole is at a distance of about 3000 light-years; it seems likely that black holes closer than this will be found eventually.
The closest known black hole is at a distance of about 3000 light-years. And no, there is no immediate risk.
The closest known black hole to Earth is about 1,000 light-years away in the constellation of Monoceros. It is known as V616 Monocerotis or A0620-00. It is a stellar-mass black hole formed from the remnants of a massive star.
I believe the closest black hole is in the center of the Milky Way galaxy... But is a black hole a dark hole? Hmm.
No, we have not seen any evidence of a black hole in our solar system.
In April 2008 NASA discovered the smallest black hole ever. The black hole, called XTE J1650-500, is15 miles across. It is located in Ara, a constellation in the Milky Way Galaxy.

There are many black holes in the universe .Scientists believe that there might be a black hole in the centre of our Milky Way galaxy which is about 25,000 light years from earth, and that that is why it rotates about its axis.
If a black hole came close to our Earth, it would most definitely suck it in. But we wouldn't have much to worry about, since the x-rays radiating from the accretion disk surrounding a black hole would kill all life on our planet long before the black hole got here.
There are no known planets in the vicinity of a black hole.
The Earth has never been endangered or harmed by a black hole, and chances are, never will be.
Nobody has been killed by a black hole. If one were to directly impact earth, there would be no survivors.
Very small. Earth has so far survived this for ca. 4-5 billion years; also, the closest known black hole is at a distance of about 3000 light-years.
