Studying Small Black Holes
1:21:19 - 1:37:19 (16:00)
Black holes with a size equal to that of five Earth masses have an equivalent gravitational pull to a planet, making them a target for studying fundamental physics. Called primordial black holes, they're formed through pathways other than the usual method, and studying them could tell us things about the universe's past.

Planet 9's gravitational pull could have caused trans-Neptunian objects to be injected back into the solar system, which would explain the higher eccentricity of some of these objects.

Summary
Planet 9's gravitational pull could have caused trans-Neptunian objects to be injected back into the solar system, which would explain the higher eccentricity of some of these objects. This also suggests that Planet 9 might have a slightly more eccentric orbit than previously thought.

The gravity of a black hole is no different than the gravity of a planet, and therefore, there could be black holes present in our solar system ranging from the size of an asteroid to ten Earth masses.

Summary
The gravity of a black hole is no different than the gravity of a planet, and therefore, there could be black holes present in our solar system ranging from the size of an asteroid to ten Earth masses. These black holes were formed during the Big Bang and could potentially provide insights into fundamental physics.

CubeSats offer a way to develop and launch probes at a fraction of the cost and time compared to traditional NASA missions, leading to increased numbers of probes and more opportunities for studying gravitational fields and beyond.
