A team of scientists has developed a new model for ‘very massive stars’ and their impact on the formation of black holes.

Very massive stars, over 100 times the mass of the sun, eject significant amounts of matter through powerful stellar winds before collapsing into black holes.

"We would need to consider the possibility that the source was created (or trapped as a primordial black hole) by a highly advanced technological civilization," Harvard's Avi Loeb writes.
