Hey guys,
How many observed/confirmed stars has disappeared from sight for no known natural reason, if any?
Stars which, based on the current mainstream understanding of how they should evolve, should still be there, but aren't.
My question relates to the theory of black-hole's, and I was wondering if there have ever been any observations that directly (or at-least more or less directly) suggests a star having been 'eaten' by a black-hole (I've never heard of such observation myself, but maybe someone else has?)
All stars I can see and recognize with my naked eye are still there, so if going only by that the answer is zero.
