In science and the popular imagination, black holes are often described as passages to other universes and dimensions — conduits, connective tissue between worlds rather than cul-de-sacs. Framed this way, entering one may not mean annihilation, but transit. The journey might not transform the participant to the point where a trip report would be moot, but that does not mean there is no passage to be made. Perhaps a passage one cannot report back from is the most important kind of passage.
