What would happen if a black hole got close to Earth?

A study developed by a group of researchers from the North American University of Princeton has analyzed which would be the consequences of a possible encounter of the Earth, with one of the first black holes that formed in the Universe. To the surprise of many netizens, we wouldn't have to worry at all, since according to scientists we would not notice anything.

In a PROFESSOR we will answer your question about what would happen if a black hole came close to Earth referring to this study that we have mentioned.

If a black hole were to approach the Earth, it would not go completely unnoticed, since we could measure it with technological equipment. If a black hole, such as those that formed during the first years of life of our Universe, crossed the Earth, the earth's core would vibrate in a manner similar to that of a small earthquake global of about four degrees of magnitude. Therefore, the black hole could be measured with a seismograph.

The key to our planet being unharmed after such an encounter is explained by the fact that scientists have discovered different types of black holes. Astronomy experts know that there are black holes with more mass even than the Sun itself, while others on the contrary

they do not exceed 3 or 4 km. of size, although with a really dangerous mass.

There is also a third group which are the black microholes with a size that scientists compare with Mount Everest. For many experts in astronomy, these black holes are one of the ingredients of which dark matter is made. And therefore, the key piece that many astronomers look for when they study the secrets that the cosmos holds.

Experts from Princeton University assure that if a black hole of these characteristics traversing the Earth would cause spherical and symmetrical waves that could be perfectly measured, but without any serious consequence, as some science fiction movies point out.
