Every thing in space moves even a black hole.

No. A black hole is a massive star that has finished it's life cycle. All mass in the universe is putting distance between itself and other items in the universe. So none of it can be at rest, because it is moving relative to something else.

There is no absolute "at rest" in the universe because in relativity everything is relative, not absolute (except the speed of light). Everything is moving with respect to everything else. According to Einstein, that does not matter at all. Just pick any arbitrary person place or thing as being at rest and calculate all motions with respect to that.

No. The problem is that nothing is ever really at rest in the universe. All movement (or lack of it) of a body is relative to every other body in the universe. So a body that's at rest relative to you say, may be travelling at 1000's of m.p.h. relative to another body somewhere else !

No it's just a mass that's not zipping around with respect to everything else.
