Can you see a black hole with a telescope?

No, because nothing can escape the black hole, not even light. So without light, we can't see anything. but, we can see stars being stretched like spaghetti and then being sucked into the black hole.


Who was the first person to see a black hole?

No black hole has ever been seen by anyone. The nature of a black hole actually prevents it from being seen. A black hole is the ultimate gravity well, and nothing that crosses the event horizon can escape. Not even light can get out. The only way a black hole can be "seen" is indirectly as it creates what is called gravity lensing. Light from objects "behnid" the black hole is "bent" around it, and it is this phenomenon that allows a black hole to be "seen" by observers.


If nothing can escape a black hole in outer space how can you see photos of a black hole?

The answer is, you cannot see photos of a black hole. You are quite right; not even light can escape a black hole's incredible gravity, so all black holes are completely invisible. It is possible, however, to see long trails of matter that is being pulled into a black hole. The way we detect black holes from earth, however, is by picking up the gamma rays that they emit.


What kind of telescope is used to see Saturn?

You can see Saturn with any kind of telescope. In fact, you can see it without a telescope. For professionals and serious amateurs, the type of telescope used depends on what specific property or characteristic of Saturn they're interested in.


Can you see a black hole when you are on eath?

You cannot see a black hole when you are on Earth, unless a black hole were to absorb Earth, which even then, you would see it in a split-second before it would engulf you

How can you say there is a black hole?

You can't see the black hole but you can see its inflence on its environment. (You can see matter that is sucked into the black hole)

A black hole


What device do you need to see a black hole?

A black hole cannot be observed directly. It cannot be "seen" as we understand the term in its basic form. But we can use a telescope to "guess" that a black hole may be in a certain location by the effects of the black hole. The presence of a black hole can be deduced from the way nearby stars move around it, or it may be "seen" by what is called gravitational lensing. The latter is a phenomenon whereby light from sources "behind" the black hole is "bent" around the black hole. If a black hole is close enough, the generation of X-rays at the event horizon would allow it to be detected, but don't count on anyone finding one in this manner.

Is there anysites you couldd see the hole?

If you are talking about a black hole the answere is no. Not even light can ascape the force of gravity of a black hole, therefore you can't see the hole itself.


Why can't we see black holes what would it look like?

We cannot see black holes because no light comes from them1. They are so gravitationally massive that even light cannot escape from a black hole, thus the name black hole.1 While there is an emission of matter and energy, called Hawking radiation, that theoretically radiates from the perimiter of a black hole, no energy of any kind (including Hawking radiation) escapes from inside the black hole.
