TL;DR Summary

Scientists at MIT have proposed that ancient primordial black holes (PBHs) are passing by our solar system at least once every decade, causing gravitational wobbles that could alter Earth's orbit and distance from the sun. These PBHs, formed shortly after the Big Bang, are theorized to be the size of a microbe but with the density of an asteroid, potentially affecting the orbits of planets and moons. The study aims to gather evidence for the existence of dark matter, as PBHs could serve as a means to prove its long-theorized presence in the universe.
