- NASA's upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is poised to embark on a groundbreaking mission.
- It will start hunting for primordial black holes dating back billions of years to the Big Bang.
- The mission is set to launch in late 2026.
- "Primordial black holes," if proven to exist, could challenge our understanding of the universe's early epochs some 13.8 billion years ago.
- Hawking's theory of Hawking radiation proposes that black hole "leak" radiation and eventually evaporate.
- For primordial black holes to survive billions of years without evaporating, they must defy Hawking's predictions.
