Mackaboo Universe › Worlds › The Black Hole
Moons and Mysteries pack · $1.99The Black Hole
A black hole far, far beyond our Sun, where not even light escapes, with a bright ring of swirling gas round its dark middle. Friends watch it from a cosy station a safe, long way off, and friendly aliens drift by. In Mackaboo Universe, the pretend play space game for kids, the Black Hole has 4 places: Glow Ring Deck, Swirl House, Spaghetti Cafe and Slow-Time Tower.
Papaboo's facts about the Black Hole
Papaboo, who guides the crew, tells these from the corner of the map:
- Not even light escapes a black hole!
- The glowing ring is gas, swirling round.
- Close up, things stretch like spaghetti!
- Time goes slower near a black hole.
- The first black hole photo came in 2019.
Getting there
Fly here from the spaceship's map, on its Moons and Mysteries page, and fly back aboard from the Black Hole's own map. It lies far beyond our Sun, where aliens live. An alien met here can ride the spaceship anywhere, and waits aboard whenever the spaceship visits our own solar system.
