If any of you could tell me how to do this in blender render and cycles to it would help also.

you might be able to achieve that with a cubemap thingy that upitis made and making it a dark color.

@HG1
is it possible to have multiple black holes?

edit:
and also is it possible to make the number not fixed? so that if i press a button the number increases?

Yes, look at the original ShaderToy code (link is in the shader). But you need to define a maximum size for the array. So when you set the array size to 6 you only can have 6 black holes max. Then you can define integer uniform variable and a for loop and add the other black holes.
