Could alien probes already be watching us from inside our own solar system? John Michael Godier speaks with John Gertz, former chairman of the SETI Institute, about why extraterrestrial civilizations may send robotic probes rather than radio signals, and whether such objects could already be hidden among asteroids, orbiting the Sun, or even closer to Earth.The discussion explores Gertz’s new book Reinventing SETI, his critiques of the Fermi Paradox and von Neumann probes, the risks of METI, and the

"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."Is there a black hole in the center of the Sun? https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.07647 Solar
