At https://www.livescience.com/space/black-holes/future-humans-could-use-black-holes-as-batteries-physics-paper-claims-heres-how … Just like that. Black holes could be harnessed and their power used as an energy source. It is called a theoretical study – black holes used like a battery. Batteries = power storage. Black holes theoretically have a lot of energy that could be tapped by an advanced human society. This idea is related to the theory that black holes have an immense gravitational pull. As another physicist is quoted as saying, we see the black hole as a place where quantum mechanics and gravity have to somehow get together …’.

Over at https://www.livescience.com/space/the-1st-life-in-the-universe-could-have-formed-seconds-after-the-big-bang … the first life forms capable of evolution could have appeared just seconds after Big Bang.
