On June 16th, 2024, in a rare cosmological event, a wandering black hole happened to pass through the orbit of Mars. Scientists at first dismissed the Juno spacecraft's infrared observations of the phenomenon as a sensor anomaly, but closer analysis of the data revealed subtle gravitational effects that could only be explained by an object of immense mass traversing the Red Planet's path. While black holes wandering the interplanetary void are theoretically possible, to observe one interacting with another celestial body is exceedingly rare. News of the discovery quickly spread among the astronomical community, with many debating what effects, if any, the close approach may have had on Mars. Meanwhile, astrophysicists scrambled to model the rogue black hole's trajectory to ascertain if Earth had narrowly avoided a most dark and destructive visitor. For a brief moment, the heavens treated observers to a glimpse of the esoteric—a real life brush with an object shrouded long in mystery. Whether this lone and wandering sinkhole of space-time had a tale to share of eons adrift amid infinity, or was but a one-off cosmic coincidence, remains a mystery as profound as the depths within its event horizon.
