Some ancient black holes might not just fade away—they could flip inside out, erupting as ‘white holes’ and spraying energy across the cosmos. If tuned just right, this could explain the strangest radio bursts in the sky. But the cosmic lottery almost never picks a winner.

🎯 An ancient black hole could be smaller than an atom yet weigh as much as a mountain.

🎬 In the sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf, a white hole makes time flow backwards.
