You mean like in outter Space??
Yes I believe they do, My mind is open to all that kinda stuff, the universe is so neverending it has to exist, not just 1 but many, as i also believe we cannot be the only intelligent life out here. or unintelligent however ya wanna see it.

I saw a show on them a while back and there are at least one that can be seen by telescope. A black hole I think is a star that has imploded and and it creates a vaccum that sucks everything around it into it.

blackholes don't suck anything. that's not how gravity works.

and I'm pretty sure you can't 'see' a blackhole, telescope or not, as seeing requires light and the defining characteristic of a blackhole is that the force of gravity exceeds the escape velocity of light. glasses

Also, a blackhole is most certainly NOT a vacuum. In fact, it's the opposite: a vacuum is a region in space which contains no matter (or little matter), whereas a blackhole is a region in space which contains matter at such a density that the gravitational force is unimaginably strong.

Lastly, the vast majority of astronomers would agree that black holes either do exist or can theoretically exist. drinker

It is now believed that at the center of each galaxy there is a super-massive black hole that is millions to billions of times heavier than our sun. The massive black hole captures nearby stars and drags them into a swirling accretion disk. A "torus" in the inner accretion shields the black hole in those systems that are viewed edge on (which is probably the case for our galactic center). In many of these systems (which are called AGN = active galactic nucleus), a jet is ejected perpendicular to the disk and is seen in the optical and radio wavebands. In the very central regions the disk becomes so hot (tens of millions of degrees) that the emission is in the X-ray and Gamma-ray bands

Black holes are objects so dense that not even light can escape their gravity, and since nothing can travel faster than light, nothing can escape from inside a black hole. On the other hand, a black hole exerts the same force on something far away from it as any other object of the same mass would. For example, if our Sun was magically crushed until it was about 1 mile in size, it would become a black hole, but the Earth would remain in its same orbit.

Even back in Isaac Newton's time, scientists speculated that such objects could exist, even though we now know they are more accurately described using Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. Using this theory, black holes are fascinating objects where space and time become so warped that time practically stops in the vicinity of a black hole.

The former type have measured masses ranging from 4 to 15 Suns, and are believed to be formed during supernova explosions. The after-effects are observed in some X-ray binaries known as black hole candidates.

On the other hand, galaxy-mass black holes are found in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). These are thought to have the mass of about 10 to 100 billion Suns. The mass of one of these supermassive black holes has recently been measured using radio astronomy. X-ray observations of iron in the accretion disks may actually be showing the effects of such a massive black hole as well.

a black hole may be a short cut to another point in the universe....
