A mind-bending hypothesis suggests the existence of microscopic black holes, created just after the Big Bang, could explain dark matter by impacting planets subtly.
The MIT researchers propose that these tiny black holes could be identified by their gentle gravitational nudges, altering the orbital paths of planets by a few feet.
Excitement is building in astrophysics because proving the existence of micro black holes might finally shed light on the mysterious nature of dark matter.
Dark matter was hypothesized in the 1930s to explain galaxy motion anomalies, and it constitutes about 85% of the universe’s total matter.
