Hey guys,

Does black holes exist? Is it even real?

Well, observations of the Milky Way's black hole require that something with the mass of millions of stars exist within an area of space smaller than a few dozen AU. The only plausible candidate for such a massive and dense object is a black hole.

Observations on all galaxies seem to lead to the same conclusion (massive black hole at center).
