History of the Universe with primordial black holes

How did supermassive black holes form? What is dark matter? In an alternative model for how the Universe came to be, as compared to the ‘textbook’ history of the Universe, a team of astronomers propose that both of these cosmic mysteries could be explained by so-called ‘primordial black holes’.

      After an unidentified flying object (UFO) was sighted over the Russian city of Saint Petersburg on February 28, Russia scrambled its fighter jets to intercept the unknown mystery object which was allegedly seen flying in the direction of the gulf of Finland. 

      200 square kilometers of airspace were blocked, and the neighboring Pulkovo Airport stopped admitting flights for landing. According to Russian News agencies, the Kover plan was activated in Saint Petersburg due to an unidentified object in the sky. Aircraft were banned from entering Pulkovo Airport. The limitations were later lifted. (The Kover plan is used in illegal border crossings or imaging.) 
      Although some Russian media reports suggest that the UFO was possibly a drone in the area, you may wonder whether it was a drone or an unidentified flying object similar to the unknown objects flying over the US.

      Türkiye and Syria are reeling from one of the worst earthquakes to strike the region in almost a century. Tens of thousands of people have been killed with many more injured in this tragedy.
      Satellite data are being used to help emergency aid organisations, while scientists have begun to analyse ground movement – aiding risk assessments that authorities will use as they plan recovery and reconstruction, as well as long-term research to better model such events.

      During the Stone Age, faraway Comet ZTF (C/2022 E3) began falling toward the inner solar system. The billions of years old comet finally reached Earth, only 0.28 AU away. 

       The orbital period of the comet is 50,000 years according to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, meaning It hasn't been so close to Earth for 50,000 years since the last ice age and prior to the extinction of the Neanderthals.
