The scale of the FSS scanner does not show them. On the map of the star system, they are sometimes displayed as a cross, but they cannot be marked on the map or selected to fly to them. Therefore, it is not clear: how to search for their location in the system and how to scan them? And in general: Is it possible to scan Black Holes?
I have a question: how to scan Black Holes in the game?

The crosses denote barycentres, not black holes, black holes are just....black....on the system map.
Black holes are classified as stellar remnants: the final stage in a star's lifespan. Neutron stars and white dwarfs are also stellar remnants.
Galmap filter is "non sequence stars"
I do wish they worded that differently. Since the "non-sequence stars" category just has neutron stars and black holes, both of which are the remnants of dead massive stars, they could have called it "stellar remnants" or something similar. Technically the term "non-sequence" could apply to anything not on the main-sequence, which would include brown dwarfs, giants, and more. With how much they've gotten right, it's a minor confusing annoyance to me that they named it that.
