Sorry but the nearest “black hole”, if they really do exist, is so many hundreds of light years away, no earth made object or probe would ever get near it.

The nearest known black hole is Gaia BH1, which was discovered in
September 2022 by a team led by Kareem El-Badry. Gaia BH1 is
1,560 light-years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Ophiuchus.
