Somehow, when I think of universal glory, black holes aren’t what come to mind. ;)

The black hole is enormous, with a radius of roughly 9 billion miles...This statement is a bit misleading. I assume the author is describing the Schwarzschild radius which is the radius of the boundary of Black hole. It is commonly known as the event horizon.
The event horizon is the boundary defining the region of space around a black hole from which nothing can escape, not even light.
Under General Relativity, a non-rotating black hole is contained in a region of infinitely small volume, where the curvature of space–time is infinite.
