Tsirkon hypersonic cruise missile is designed to be carried on surface ships; it is under final phase of testing.
But as well as the lithium-ion batteries for which it has grown in popularity, the highly reactive and flammable alkali mineral – sometimes referred to as “white gold” – is also used in ceramics and glass, lubricating greases, polymer production, and air treatment.
Primordial Black Holes (PBH) were formed during the Hot Big Bang phase.
PBH can be massively large as 3000kms or be extremely tiny like nucleus of an atom.
It is believed that they are formed as a result of collapsing radiations as opposed to the collapse of massive stars, which is the case of any other black holes.
