Scientists Hunt for Tiny Black Holes in Planets and Everyday Objects

TL;DR Summary
New research suggests that primordial black holes, theorized to be a form of dark matter, might be detectable in hollow planetoids or microscopic tunnels in everyday materials on Earth. These black holes, formed in the early universe, could leave behind unique signatures, such as hollowed-out celestial bodies or straight tunnels in solid materials. Although the chances of finding these signatures are slim, the potential discovery of primordial black holes would be significant, prompting a need for innovative theoretical frameworks in physics.
