Sobre un fondo purpura hay una caricatura doblada y otra abierta de la tarjeta de información de seguridad sobre agujeros negros. La versión doblada, a la izquierda, es un rectángulo alto y delgado con el logotipo de la NASA en la esquina superior derecha. Hay un círculo negro con los ojos entrecerrados, que representa un agujero negro, y el texto "Información de seguridad para agujeros negros". La versión abierta muestra tres paneles, cada uno con imágenes de agujeros negros, tanto de dibujos animados como otras ilustraciones, junto con un texto ilegible entre las imágenes.
