The Earth has experienced a black hole
Scientists have proposed that the Earth has had a black hole present for its entire lifespan. Even though it’s a frightening idea, if we take into account that the Earth is 4 billion years old, then once every billion years would make sense as to why a black hole could pass us by or even be within our reach.
If that’s the case, then why are we still alive? Well, this theory suggests it’s possible the black hole was small and simply passed through our solar system instead of engulfing or getting stuck within us. With an observatory being set up and scheduled to be active in 2023, there will be more significant discoveries and proofs of this theory. We can thank our dedicated scientists for always learning more for the planet’s greater good.
