How could the first black holes have formed immediately after the Big Bang, even before the ignition of stars? This question ...

Scientists now think the universe may be filled with tiny “primordial” black holes, relics from the first moments after the ...

A new paper has explored what would happen if a tiny black hole were to pass through a human body. Rather than a disappointing "not much", the physicist behind the paper specifically tried to ...

Have you ever contemplated the bizarre scenario of a microscopic black hole passing through your body? Surprisingly, the potential damage may not be as catastrophic as one might think, at least below ...

"It would completely revolutionize physics and help us rewrite the history of the universe." New research suggests that there is a 90% chance that within the next decade, humanity could use a space or ...

Primordial black holes are hypothetical black holes thought to have formed moments after the Big Bang. Because they supposedly formed about 14 billion years ago, and black holes are thought to ...

If a new proposal by physicists bears out, the recent detection of a record-setting neutrino could be the first evidence of elusive Hawking radiation. (Nanowerk News) The last gasp of a primordial ...

Astronomers examining data from the James Webb Space Telescope say they’ve spotted what might be the oldest black hole in the universe, born less than a second after the Big Bang. Their findings, ...

Although falling into a massive black hole seems like a scenario far from our everyday life, physicists warn of the existence of primordial micro black holes that might be hidden within our solar ...

Plenty of groups have been theorizing about primordial black holes (PBHs) recently. That is in part because of their candidacy as a potential source of dark matter. But, if they existed, they also had ...

A decade ago, the first gravitational waves confirmed that black holes collide. Telescopes soon revealed shadows of giants lurking at galaxy cores. The next frontier is stranger: tiny black holes from ...

Black holes keep showing up in the news. Scientists have recorded the space ripples from their violent crashes and even ...
