M E S S I is named after Messier 87, a galaxy whose core contains the first black hole to ever have a photo taken of it. Another name I considered is Lark, which is an anagram of Karl (Schwarzschild), who is the physicist that came up with the initial equations for black holes. It's also conveniently the name of a bird. :-) I settled on Messi cuz black holes be messy, what with pulling in anything and everything.

Claim to Fame: First black hole to ever be photographed.

Tested selling to @matcha in hopes for an achievement (list your first chicken, sell your first chicken), but no go. XD
