I can't imagine that distance without some reference of scale 🙃

One more reason to feel blue watching a sunset. Thank you very much.

It's methane. Sea, lakes and rivers of farts.

IIRC Neptune has not done 1 revolution round the sun since it was discovered

They wouldn’t if my mom could get to the moon. She would sweep them up.

I owe, I owe, So off to work I go. (Sorry, couldn't help myself)

Unfortunately, this reverses when you return to full gravity. And, apparently, the shrinking process hurts.

The rest is just flying trash now

Great for kite flying

Who knew Italy was located on the sun?

About 4000m high, with white peaks made of methane frost.

Looks like tinfoil

Saturn’s rings look like a *giant* vinyl record.

But impossible to drive to.

And if you look real close, you'll see monoliths. (What? I love "2010".)

I think it's got something to do with the temperature being low enough that the gasses are in superconductive state. If someone remembers more or better, please correct

It is known as Lucifer, the Morning Star.

At last! They've found somewhere that's wetter than Manchester. They will be relieved.

🎶 Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state / Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started, wait / The earth began to cool, the autotrophs began to drool / Neanderthals developed tools / We built a wall (we built the pyramids) / Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries / That all started with the big bang (bang) 🎶

I'll stay on Earth, thank you.

The difference in the amount of known objects in our solar system now from when I was a kid is mind blowing.

Little known fact: the only part of the sun that we have pictures of is the Photoshere. (Rim shot)

And one space station that is often mistaken for a moon.

I can see Uranus through a telescope?

See! Headless Roach should not have been downvoted earlier for pointing this out.

Chilly it is.

Cool name!

Rusty rocks

There are rocks like this with little holes in them on the beach in Sequim, Washington.

I always wonder how we manage to send up anything with all the stuff orbiting the planet!

I didn't come here to see a planetary game of "I'll show you mine if you show me yours"

I think everything is made of some type of water.

And they didn't drop Trump off at one?

Uranus has rings around it.

Mercury, on average, is the closest planet to us.

However, the "day" in question is sidereal day, rotation respective to the stars. Solar day, is 176 days - sun is up for a whole Mercurian year, then down for the same time.

When you first realize the distances between objects in the universe, it can kind of leave you flabbergasted.

This is where the monolith was in the novel 2001 space Odyssey instead of around Jupiter like in the film

The sun: 'Ahem'

Fake news! I can pinch the sun in my fingers! 🤪

Big fella

Fun Fact: It's not related to this but every planet in the solar system has rings. Saturn just has the most obvious!!!

Neptune has you beat.

Mmm milk and cookies

So your saying from question 13 that the Sun shall grow that much and then proceed to swallow Earth? Damn that's messed up. 😡

We need to get some gay astronauts up there then. Gay people can always get the party started! Atmosphere achieved!

*packs her gloves*

Pluto *Sobbing quietly in the corner*
