Primordial black holes could be a type of dark matter called MACHOs, which stands for massive compact halo objects, because astronomers think they’re found in the halos, or outskirts, of galaxies.

"Primordial black holes should form during the first few seconds after the Big Bang. If they exist, they have some advantages over astrophysical black holes," Regan said.

Kenadie Jourdin-Bromley, 12, poses at a park with little brother Tyran, 10. She has primordial dwarfism - a condition causing underdevelopment of limbs, which affects about 100 people worldwide ...

Tiny ‘primordial’ black holes created in the Big Bang may have rapidly grown to supermassive sizes Did 'primordial' black holes born right after the Big Bang help our universe's 1st stars form?

Massive primordial black holes could be the long sought answer. Such large, heavy objects might also have served as the anchors around which early galaxies coalesced, another conundrum that has ...
