In Portal, using the portal gun to get to the moon is the obvious space travel usage, but I think people are overlooking how it’d let you trivially break the rocket equation.
Hell, you could build a >1g torchship using nothing but the ocean.

@foone@digipres.club Fun fact: holes like this are also useful for testing the effects of microgravity. NASA maintains several near Cleveland for studying the effects of microgravity on fluids like air, water, plasmas, etc. IIRC you get useful results until you hit terminal velocity
