Are black holes considered to be stars>

Answer #1

No, black holes are not stars but stars of large enough mass can collapse and become a black hole. Stars, by definition covert and radiate energy through nuclear processes at the star’s core. Black hole only emit Hawking radiation.

Answer #2

They are not considered to be stars, because they are the result of a large star’s death. If they were, it would be a bit like saying a skeleton is a living being - it once was, but isn’t anymore, and can’t do the same things it did when it was alive.

no, stars give off light, have a core, and are visible. Black holes are the exact opposite.
