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.

However, the paper’s new modeling suggests that even planets with their original primordial atmospheres of hydrogen and helium (something Earth also once had) can be potentially habitable for ...
