And all 7 other planets would fit between earth and the moon. Space is big. It might even be bigger than your mum.

The sun is 400x bigger than moon, 400x far from earth-moon. It makes they look same in size from the earth

Does the sun actually turn slow or does it just look slow cause of how big it is?

They also appear spherical which I believe is a myth, a practical joke by James R Pythagoras in 1954 which got out of hand

They are really close to uranus ;)

Fun fact, which I verified: You could fit all the planets side-by-side between the Earth and the Moon.

I hope you've put the planets back where you've found them after you verified that fun fact.

Ceres? Did we add a planet? I admit I didn’t not check daily but I think I would have noticed that. ?1

4 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 1

I think it was classified as a dwarf planet a while ago, in the early 00's. I remember it happened but only after seeing it lined up here xD

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Yes, Ceres was originally a planet. It was reclassified as an asteroid in the 1850's. Now it's a dwarf planet, along with Pluto.

I JUST LEARNED GRAVITY HAS A SPEED.

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

I just watched a video on gravitational waves and got excited. It’s the same as the speed of light for anyone who got this far.

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

I've never heard/thought this, yet suddenly it sounds like a no-brainer concept. But speed of light!? Can haz link pls, I love to learn!

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Anything without mass travels at the speed of light. But look up the LIGO detector and the measurement of gravitional waves, it's wild!

Increasing numbers of astronomers question that decision because of the damage it did to it public's relationship with astronomy.

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 2

Good science is meant to explain the natural world to people, and the 2006 definition of planet wasn't natural. It was for convenience.

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

You should have stopped with this reply.

So that means if the public doesn't like it, that definition can be tossed.

Both dwarf our sun, even though, non of them are dwarf stars.

Sirius and Betelgeuse are both navigational stars. Celestial Navigation is really cool. :)

"If UY Scuti replaced the sun in the center of the solar system, its photosphere would extend just beyond the orbit of Jupiter." BIG star.

Betelgeuse actually, but pronounced the same

The largest known star is UY Scuti is a variable hypergiant with a radius around 1,700 times larger than the radius of the sun.

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Hypergiant is a strange term, since it's more to do with luminosity than physical size. It's not THAT much bigger than Betelgeuse, which-

4 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

-is a supergiant star, but it is significantly brighter. Comparatively, both stars are quite a bit bigger than the Pistol star, which is-

Since it's a gas giant and most of its mass is concentrated closer to its core, I presume it has a lower rotational mass moment of inertia.

I think the sun is faster but obviously much bigger so it’s not rotating at a faster rate.

It also makes it flatter at the poles than at the equator because it spins so fast.

Earth is like that too actually. Just not as much as Jupiter. Jupiter's also made of gas, which is more mobile than rock and water.

Which I'd wager helps the geometric polar shape

My favorite fact is that Venus rotates on its axis (one day) every 243 earth days and rotates around the sun once every 225 days. 1/2
