Mini blackholes believed to be passing earth each day!

“Unlike astrophysical black holes, which are formed by the collapse of massive stars, mini black holes are believed to have formed during the Big Bang (they are also sometimes called primordial black holes for this reason). They’re also much smaller. An astrophysical black hole has a minimum mass of 1030 kg, but the mass of mini black holes range from the tiny Planck mass to trillions of kilograms or more.”
