Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that black holes are invisible because no light can escape from them?

Yes. NASA, a Wikibooks astronomy text, and a peer-reviewed paper all state that a black hole's gravity is strong enough that nothing, not even light, can escape, and NASA and the Wikibooks text add that this makes black holes effectively invisible.
