Is There a Black Hole in the Center of the Sun?
from John Michael Godier's Event Horizon · host John Michael Godier
"There is probably not a black hole in the center of the sun. If primordial black holes exist then they may exist in sufficiently large numbers to explain the dark matter in the universe. While primordial black holes may form at almost any mass, the asteroid-mass window between 10−16−10−10 M⊙ remains a viable dark matter candidate and these black holes could be captured by stars upon formation."
