Astrophysicists have teased a hellish potential future in which life on Earth is extinguished by deadly radiation from the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way.

In 2022, experts from the University of Amsterdam simulated a black hole event horizon to test Stephen Hawking's 1974 radiation theory.

"Many supermassive black holes may lie concealed within dusty regions of the early universe, undetected," said astronomer Takafumi Tsukui.

Primordial black holes could inhabit the modern-day cosmos, making them responsible for the phenomenon of dark matter, ...
