: As for it being impossible to see, black holes are black,
: space is black. If you see a hole in the road, you
: know the hole is there because of the rest of the
: road, not because of the hole itself. Similarly, you
: know the great devoid is there becasue of the
: surrounding land, not because of the devoid.
This is incorrect... You can't see a black hole because it is impossible to see it, even if it were against a white background. Light cannot escape a black hole, so no light from a black hole can reach your eyes.
