Comment on what would happen if a rogue, earth-size planet ran straight into the sun? anything interesting?
spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works 5 weeks agoOkay so I forgot how big the sun is and had that absentminded mental picture moment of “oh it would make a big bang as something 3/4s the size of the sun would hit it”…
This picture was a very helpful reminder of just how out to lunch that thought was. Don’t trust your absent thoughts, folks 😅

The more I learn about the sun, the more I realize those ancient civilizations who worshipped it got it right. Look at that thing it’s fucking huge, scary, and it’s like right there.

No, they were just superstitious, they did not know how huge the sun was.
But we know now so ALL HAIL THE SUN GOD!!!
