Can we view a black hole directly or does the observation have to be indirect???

Answer 1

ya i can answer this
black holes are formed due to the extreme curvature in space-time blanket. the light cones are sucked in to the black hole and no one knows what happens after that... it's well known that any objects presence in the universe can be felt by the radiation it gives out according to the second law of thermodynamics... as black holes gives out nothing it's presence can't be felt directly.. only with the help it's influence with the near by stars especially a binary star or anything like that we can actually feel it's presence

again by second law Of thermodynamics which tells that the entropy of a system will increase with time the black hole gives out some energy in the form of anti-particles which scientists have found to be a valuable evidence

so to conclude black holes can't be detected by using conventional methods like Doppler shift or getting the amount of radiation from it but some special techniques are employed here

Answer 2

Actually, you cant see a black hole because it looks like what you see in the night sky but if you have a enough equipment like the scientist have, you can see is using a equipment but you know that black hole is a massive star the even light cannot pass through or even the radio waves so it is hard to see a black hole

Answer 3

You see the accretion disk of energy/mass around the black hole's event horizon. You can also see Gamma Ray jets out of each pole. So I would say it's an indirect observation. The actual hole is "black", no light.

Answer 4

Black holes exist. The center of our galaxy is a black hole. We have to observe the black holes from the effect. We cant directly see them.

Answer 5

Since nothing can escape a black hole - not even light or radio waves, we can only observe them indirectly.

Answer 6

you view a vlack hole the same way you view the sun go out in the morning and stare for about fifteen minutes after that you can see black holes

Answer 7

there is still doubt about existence of black hole

scientist who uses microscope to see the stars have a black dot on telescope so they can see black dot and figured out that it exists.

Answer 8

you cant actually see a black hole . you can see things (stars, comets) passing in front of it or see things being blocked by it.(after it passes them)
