      No one knows, because nothing can get out of a black hole, so we can’t observe what’s in there. Normally when we want to learn about something we send something in to have a look for us and give us some information. We can’t do that with black hole, so we really don’t know.

      Paul’s right. We don’t know. Black holes tend to suck up anything everything that gets too close, so it’s likely that no 2 black holes contain exactly the same stuff, or even the same amount of stuff. But as Paul said, no one really knows
