Isn‘t the Planet called Urectum now, to prevent childish jokes?

Don't plain-shame, being basic is okay too

Nasa is ruining every planet one-by-one. First pluto wasn't a planet. Then neptune is even more boring and stupid than previously thought. Next thing we know, Mars isn't a planet anymore because planets aren't red.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Pluto is nice and colorful

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

Mars isn't even red, it's sort of brown

Technically the concept of a planet is a social construct. Scientists have been scurrying around redefining the definition of a planet to exclude asteroids ever since they discovered them. Why can't they just say that the Earth is a wet asteroid and be done with it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (3 children)

My personal definition of planet:

  1. big enough to be spherical
  2. has never been big enough to cause fusion
[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I think it should be "big enough to hypothetically hold an atmosphere".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

big enough to be spherical

oh boy

The world's biggest ball of string is now a planet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

As it should be! Big boy is round!

I'm going to boycott nasa. Go woke go broke.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

I could see trump getting rid of NASA for his own space agency and he'd call it SASA. Super awesome space agency.

NASA comms office assistant tries to let off steam by visiting Lemmy, sees your comment, has flashbacks to the letters they read from Americans everyday

Well I mean why is Mercury still a planet? It didn't clear it's own orbit, it just happens to be in an empty orbit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Jupiter is a dwarf planet

aktschually mercury is the sun's moon

Venus isn’t a planet either. It’s a hell-sphere. But that makes it even more rad 🤘

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

A hell-sphere that would be easier to fix than Mars, which is an entirely different type of hell-sphere. Just toss in enough ice to make eventual oceans and some cyanobacteria, and it should calm down in a few hundred thousand years.

Short of an artificial black hole at its center to raise the gravity, I don't see how we could ever terraform Mars. There's not enough gravity for anything that evolved here to be healthy there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Maybe looking at it the wrong way. Mars becomes a place to visit. Turn it into an ecosystem full of stuff that can survive the low gravity. Insects and plants. You know after you stripmine it.

Go visit the weird ass nature reserves from your spinning space habitat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's certainly an option, but right now it seems most space agencies are totally ignoring Venus as a possibility, and are focused on a Mars colony.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Well Mars colony would be easier at the moment.

As much as I don't particularly like the man I think Bezos was right. We already have a place with ideal gravity. The future should be orbiting colonies. Imagine processes that could be done under fully controlled conditions.

@AngryCommieKender @root_beer
Floating cities in the clouds of Venus mining carbon dioxide and nitrogen out of the atmosphere, sending all those excess gases to Mars, the Belt, and the moons of the gas giants for terraforming and habitats.

When the developers thought their model was so far out of the potential view distance of the player they didn't bother making a texture for it.
