    I love it. The dragging of black holes could be improved:

    * The black hole is not moved until the cursor has moved more than five pixels.

    * The first time the black hole moves in the dragging process, it moves more than one pixel, afterwards one. So it is a small jump and then it moves smooth.

    * The cursor icon changes to the drag symbol only after the mouse has already moved five pixels, not as soon as the mouse button is hold down.

    * When the mouse is outside the draggable zone, but still in the game window, the black hole is not dragged along the border.

      Also you can't move it too close to ship, but there's no feedback you're too close, so it looks it's just not responding.
