Unveiling the Hidden Stealth Black Holes in Our Cosmic Backyard

A recent study suggests that there may be two or three candidate black holes just 150 light-years away from Earth, much closer than previously thought. Researchers focused on the Hyades star cluster and found that the motion and evolution of stars in the cluster could be explained by the presence of stellar mass black holes. These black holes may have formed from the collision, merger, and collapse of stars in densely packed groups. Further observations and models are needed to confirm the existence of these black holes and explore the possibility of nearby wormholes.
