Black Hole Travel Postcards

Released on September 23, 2019

Wish you were here! Now, you can send your friends postcards from one of the most extreme vacation spots in the universe—or at least convince them you've gone even though you stayed safe at home.

Postcard: Black Hole

Why would you visit a black hole? No, seriously, why would you? It's dangerous! This postcard will help remind all your friends of your memorable trip—and why they might not want to go themselves.

Postcard: Event Horizon

See the sights (or lack thereof)! Go past the point of no return! Get stretched into a giant noodle! Your friends will be jealous of your adventures at the event horizon when they receive this postcard. Or, more importantly, if they receive it.

Postcard: The Singularity

The spot at (quite literally) the center of all the action! Send this postcard to a friend...if you can.
