The possibility that black holes may be lurking within the solar system is a tantalizing prospect for astrophysicists. Recent studies suggest that primordial black holes, which are believed to ...

The bold question-askers at What If explore why having a black hole in our Solar System would be a catastrophic scenario.

If microscopic black holes born a fraction of a second after the Big Bang exist, then at least one may fly through the solar system per decade, generating tiny gravitational distortions.

One Black Hole May Pass Through Our Solar System Every Decade, Study Finds. Published Sep 17, 2024 at 11:31 AM EDT Updated Sep 18, 2024 at 1:54 PM EDT. By .

In a study published Tuesday in the journal Physical Review D, physicists at MIT say the presence of a tiny black hole speeding through the solar system could be identified by the gentle ...

According to Smethurst, there may be black holes roaming around the universe, with one lurking even in the outskirts of our solar system. "A lot of stars formed in clusters," she said.

If there is a black hole, it's at least 20 times farther from Earth than the furthest planet, Neptune, in a distant region of our solar system called the extended Kuiper Belt.

If our sun were replaced with a black hole of the same mass, our solar system would orbit similarly to how it does now, but it would be a lot colder. We don’t know what matter looks like inside ...

If a black hole did wander into our solar system, the largest effects would be gravitational. And those effects would depend on the mass of the black hole. You may like ...

The first, very expensive, way to find a black hole in the solar system would be to send 100 specially-equipped spacecraft, as proposed by Edward Written, and Scott Lawrence and Zeeve Rogoszinski ...
