    A stellar black hole of 1 M ☉ has a Hawking temperature of 62 nanokelvins. [142] This is far less than the 2.7 K temperature of the cosmic microwave background radiation. Stellar-mass or larger black holes receive more mass from the cosmic microwave background than they emit through Hawking radiation and thus will grow instead of shrinking ...
