Story summary

Researchers suggest black holes may function as "little Big Bangs" in reverse, enhancing our understanding of the universe's origins.
The cosmologically coupled black hole (CCBH) hypothesis posits that black holes transform exhausted stellar matter into dark energy.
A study in Physical Review Letters shows dark energy's strength correlates with star formation rates.
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has created the largest 3D universe map, analyzing over 14 million targets.
Future tests will evaluate the CCBH model against cosmic microwave background data.
