I was showing a fellow member of the 202nd the location of Corsica earlier today. It was his first time there, and he really enjoyed the view, especially of the black hole. We decided to take a closer look at it and take some pictures. We cruised up pretty close (we wanted some good pictures, hehe) and before the gravity became any problem at all we were assailed by nearly lethal amounts of radiation. I've never experienced such a torrent. My ship lost power quickly, despite my efforts to escape back to Corsica. I barely managed to get my eject pod out in time. I'm burned up pretty badly, and my ship, I can only assume, is powerless and floating toward the hole. Hopefully I'll be up and at 'em soon. The damn hospital beds here are uncomfortable and the bar is expensive.
Oh, and all of my pictures were lost. It's a shame, because it actually was pretty before I nearly died.
