Of course this isn’t our galaxy, that’s why OP was so kind to add the missing banana for us
Comment on Banana scale
starik@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
A couple problems here:
- The image resolution isn’t high enough for a banana to be visible at this scale.
- This isn’t the Milky Way (it’s impossible to take a picture from outside our own galaxy), so bananas do not exist there. This means the banana would have to be photoshopped in, in which case you might as well photoshop a map scale.
Nice picture, but I call BS 🤔

Pinch to zoom, brah.

How do you know bananas don’t exist outside of our galaxy?

That second point just isn’t true. We have pictures of other galaxies

With bananas for scale?

Edit: Omg, I forgot to mention the most obvious giveaway. Our supermassive black hole doesn’t have a quasar! Busted!

There could be a teapot in there somewhere though.

Let’s assume there is one until someone proves otherwise.

Pretty easy to get an Andromeda shot that includes banana for scale

If the universe is infinite, there most certainly are bananas on an infinite number of planets.

I don’t believe you, if this isn’t our galaxy how did he get the banana in the picture?

Every banana in existence is in this picture.

This guy honestly doesn’t believe in panbanania.

The theory that the universe was seeded with banana life by an intergalactic precursor race of bananas? It’s possible, but so far there is no hard evidence, and I don’t think OP is claiming to have taken a picture of an alien banana.

This was covered in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation called The Chase:

Bananas don’t have seeds.
teft@piefed.social 10 months ago
They do. Just not the versions we eat. Those are genetic clones and are propagated seedlessly. If you look closely sometimes you can see undeveloped seeds in bananas. They’re the little black dots near the center that you see sometimes.
Here is a picture of a land race banana with seeds:
