Artistic view of black holes on a collision course, distorting the space-time structure and generating the gravitational waves, predicted by Einstein, 100 years, in his theory of general relativity.

  There really are some theories that make the head "hot" even. According to some scientists, the singularity of a black hole is similar to that of the Big Bang, and therefore our universe that is 4D (spatial 3D and temporal 1D) must have been created by a singularity of a 5D (spatial 4D and temporal 1D) universe. Crazy ... Very crazy.

  Also, I saw a documentary a while back that theorized that objects pulled into a black hole get "stored" on its surface, kind of like a 2D energy blueprint. Whenever I try to consider stuff like this, my head starts to hurt...

  Although black holes are a disturbance in spacetime itself, they're still affected by gravity (it's just that there isn't usually anything nearby that's heavy enough to influence an object that nears infinite density). When two black holes do manage to get close enough, they eventually would get pulled together and merge.

  Black holes would not move. They're a disturbance in physics itself. Invisible. What confuses me, is where whatever gets sucked in goes to. It can't possibly just vanish.

  eli573: It really depends on how you define "see". If you mean directly visually see the black holes, then nobody has, as you cannot see black holes. (Except for Hawking Radiation, but that's a whole new story...) If you mean witnessed, the sure people did, as the instruments they used clearly showed black holes that collided. Now sorry for that comment, but this question is philosophically too interesting to skip over. ;-)

  @MAS2015 I meant that is visually inaccurate, but I haven't, nor has any other soul on Earth, seen a black hole, let alone two black holes colliding.

  eli573: As you can verify save title, it is an artistic (didatica) view of reality, bearing is not lacking in accuracy. The singularities, neutron stars, the distortions in space-time or several other phenomena, are not perceived by the human eye. But you're right when you say that black holes could not be blue or have textures. Thanks for the visit and comment. :)

  This is innacurate, as black holes appear black, as not even light can escape their strong gravitational pull. They aren't blue, but blue, but rather black without any texture what so ever.

  explosivepowder: Ok!!! Okay, I hope you can open and see right.
