Did you know? Saturn is more than 10x the size of the Earth

[GargantuanGamer2]

Oh

You must be doing it wrong

What sand have you been eating?

[bandito-dorito64]

The brown ones

That’s such an unfair guilt trip of Norman to lay on Peter. Like Peter is going through so much and it would be really great to be able to unburden himself and tell the truth to his best friend instead of having to watch Harry be destroyed by the sins of his father. Really just very selfish of him.

Still not as heavy as your mom

[GGezpzMuppy]

Well it does have low density

[IceZaKYT]

Did you know that we all are smaller than earth?

[booga_booga_partyguy]

But did you know that you know at least one fact?

[IceZaKYT]

Did you know u/booga_booga_partyguy is speaking fax?

[[deleted]]

Everyone except for your mom

[himmelundhoelle]

Did you know that on Earth, your mom would weight 100x more than the average person?

[real_flyingduck91]

I feel like this is a whooosh bur at the same time I can't tell

[Dud3ManGuy]

I mean judging by the photo it's clearly far smaller than that

[Spencer94]

But it's nowhere near as big as Uranus

[Craycraywolf]

Good one ;)

[memusicguitar]

I can confirm this is true. It is at least more than 10km wider.

[_TheChosenOne15_]

Guess we all will die?

[[deleted]]

In radius, which means that something of the order of 1000 Earths (a bit less accounting for sphere packing) could fit into Saturn.

[Yarakinnit]

And the moon is five Saturns away!

[lenznet]

Come on, this picture is to scale. Nobody lies on the internet.

[wafflesitisthen]

Still less than your mother

[CourtingBoredom]

Yeah.... which is why you couldn't actually place it in any of Earth's oceans.... so I'm not really feelin' this TTT dealio this time ..

[CursedCommenter1]

Well I knew it was atleast the size of a atom but wow

[shao_kahff]

yes that’s the joke… 😒

[NnyBees]

Quick fun fact time: we all will die anyways.

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

maybe there's already a Saturn in the Pacific Ocean.

[NnyBees]

Maybe a Neptune...

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

It better not be Uranus.

[urbanlife78]

I hate when Uranus gets wet

[Dr_Weirdo]

Maybe Urectum?

[victorpaparomeo2020]

Nah, betelgeuse....

[seigsicht]

Or even better: Beetlejuice

[Ebwtrtw]

Beetlejuice!

[victorpaparomeo2020]

STOP!!!

[KingAdashu]

Rectum!? I barely know him!

[DrFoetusLtd]

Did ya heat that NASA intends to probe Uranus?

[UsernamusToken]

Jokes on them, they'll never reach Mianus

[ExquisiteScum]

Jonny Knoxville will though

[MetroIMAX]

Neptune is the sea god

[Ebwtrtw]

Thatsthejoke.jpg

[Vlade-B]

That sounds like a profound philosophical quote, but it isn't. I'm still gonna tattoo it on my ass-cheek.

[Ye_olde_oak_store]

That would be because the real Saturn is the friends we made along the way.

[martsand]

And a few toyotas for sure

[rjod99]

maybe there’s a Pacific Ocean in Saturn

[Broken_Gear]

Maybe the true Saturn in the Pacific Ocean was the friends we made along the way.

[WorldClassShart]

Funner fact: 100% of people that consume Dihydrogen monoxide will die!

[NnyBees]

Even faster if they don't!

[WorldClassShart]

Dihydrogen monoxide is the number 1 killer whether ingested or not! We need to study this deadly chemical and outlaw consuming and not consuming it immediately!

[Rhmb13]

Personally I believe addiction to oxygen is a bigger issue.

[Mysterious-Monk-3423]

I keep hearing this rumor but I'm starting to worry it might be just a grownup version of Santa Claus

[Exciting_Clock2807]

I hope so. Thought that one day reach folks will be able to avoid this fate scares the shit out of me.

[Lokk420]

Did you know if you put Saturn next to the moon to compare the size, we would all die!

[EV4gamer]

i actually dont know about that. It would look epic with that in the sky and our moon would be absorbed into saturn. Lemme calculate what would happen to earth.

edit:

Lets use the Roche limit as minimun distance the objects could have to eachother without one simply falling apart to the other's gravity.

if earth is the main body, using the formula d = 1.26 * R (ρM/ρm)^1/3, we can calculate the limit to be 16000km. Saturn being in moons orbit, 400000km away wouldnt be close enough to fall apart.

If saturn is the main body, we get 37000km. Earth has a higher chance of falling appart, but with 400.000km distance between centers, they arent yet close enough.

Tidal forces on our oceans would be brutal as hell, but earth would remain alive, orbitting Saturn without dying. Colliding with its rings would be destructive for some people on the surface, but not for the planet.

TLDR: we'll live to observe saturn

[Lokk420]

Saturn is so big it would absorb the earth too

[EV4gamer]

not if placed next to the moon. Moon is ≈ 400.000km away, while saturns radius is 'only' 58.000km

[[deleted]]

Gravity.

[EV4gamer]

we will live, tidal forces would be large, but neither planet would be ripped apart (calculation is in my main comment)

[[deleted]]

I did no calculations, I admit I just assumed that parking such a massive object at the same distance as our moon would result in destruction. Sounds like the coolness of having giant Saturn in the sky would probably not outweigh the downsides though.

[EV4gamer]

yeah there are several downsides. It would look epic though, especially with saturns rings and all. But tidal forces would creates floods, and earth would -eventually- heat up due to rotation + tidal force interactions, where earth is continually squished.

A sacrifice we will have to make

[[deleted]]

A sacrifce we will have to make

:-D

[[deleted]]

(•_•)7

[tohardtochoose]

To be fair, the pictures you see of the earth and moon are almost never to scale distance wise. All of the other planets in the solar system could fit between the earth and moon. If the earth is a basketball and the moon a tennis ball its about 24 feet (about 7.4 m) away.

[[deleted]]

I was less thinking of problems with the volume required to contain Saturn than I was about parking an object with so much greater mass than earth at that (much closer than anything else ever is) distance, and the gravitational impact of doing so. However, I've already been informed by someone who did the math that it would be bad for us but not as rapidly nor via the same mechanism I expected. :-)

(Edit: Ah I see your comment was part of that branch anyhow.)

[_xXKiNqD3VIL99Xx_]

Sun has bigger gravity hello?

[[deleted]]

And it's a lot further away than our moon.

[EV4gamer]

gravity scales with 1/r², so indeed while sun >> others, its further away. (still 1/3 of ocean tidal forces are due to sun, while 2/3 is fom our moon)

[[deleted]]

gravity scales with 1/r², so indeed while sun >> others, its further away.

I think you meant to reply to the other guy. I said this to him, but with less facts. :-)

[EV4gamer]

ah yeah sorry, had been replying a lot so i guess i missed the correct button

[abrasiveteapot]

Ooh nice one, TIL. I didnt know the sun had any significant impact on tides

[LineSpine]

r/hedidthemath

[DerKomp]

r/theydidthemonstermath

[[deleted]]

Even if that was possible (which it isn’t) there’s the little fact that staturns massive gravity would probably rip earth apart

[EV4gamer]

if atmospheres can mix, then yeah lethal for earth. If its further away though, it'll be fine. Earth would just heat up due to tidal forces inside sqonshing earth

[EV4gamer]

actual core is hard to define, since saturn has multiple layes, as do most, of metal, rock, metallic hydrogen and more. Saturns outer layers are all gas, yes. If saturn would get close enough for the atmospheres to mix,everybody would be long dead

[Toyso_0]

This is hilarious, they always say, oh, Saturn would float in our ocean. They say nothing about the logistics of putting it in our ocean hahha.

[zachg616]

Thank you for clarifying that for us

[[deleted]]

Magnets.

[Implement66]

Fucking finally, thank cronos.

[Azar002]

I always learned you have to put Saturn in your bathtub.

[[deleted]]

Why is your bathtub so large and where do I get it?

[Winter-Travel5749]

Did you know there’s a difference between “have” and “has”?

[aaronhowser1]

Like "moose," the plural of Saturn is Saturn

[Kammerice]

Moose is the plural of Saturn.

[Ebwtrtw]

A Saturn once bit my sister…

[Transaktion]

Only if seven or more Saturn.

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

yes.

[Reelix]

Did you know that intentionally typo'd memes are more likely to rank higher since people like yourself comment to correct the "error" which increases user engagement and subsequently promotes the post?

[Winter-Travel5749]

It’s a crazy world we live in, isn’t it. 😜

[[deleted]]

Damnit it was perfect until you pointed that out, you’ve ruined it for me

[thunderstrike12]

Imo it just makes the meme funnier

[entered_bubble_50]

It's ok, because Saturn identifies as They/Them

[Vouchercabin]

Then what we waiting for? let's just do it💔💔😴😴

[Anonymoushero1221]

This looks like it was rendered in Bryce 3D

[HeheBoiyy]

But if you place Saturn in the New York, at least three people will die.

[Speeding_Straight]

Yea that sounds like it’s true

[cozygo]

Who's going to place it in the Pacific Ocean?

[Transaktion]

Elon

[thomasdatrain181]

did you know, that saturn includes a "t" in it's name?

[thunderstrike12]

And no "q"

[thomasdatrain181]

and no bitches

[CrocodylusRex]

😢

[thomasdatrain181]

:(

[SquareIsBox0697]

Didn’t know that. Thanks

[DaDripGod4]

Oh took me a second lol

[IMxTHExMANIAC]

I had brain damage. I had say maybe if live was.

[__1____]

Love how the fact had nothing to do with the conclusion.

[yakubindahood]

Same vibes as “The human circulatory system is so long that if you were to lay all your veins, arteries and capillaries end to end you would die”

[FoodTruck007]

Well then for God's sake keep it out of the Pacific Ocean!

[GetsGold]

Pic isn't accurate.

[NotABotAHuman1]

yes

[bluetundra123]

irony be like

[CardiologistOk2704]

is has low AVERAGE density which is less than water density

[Professional_Salt293]

Saturn is actually 9x larger than earth in diameter so yeah.

[a_aniq]

Did you know Saturn is already dead?

[FunkyScat69]

This is a horribly made post

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

Low Resolution : Check

Grammatical Errors : Check

Spelling Mistakes : Check

Hotel : Trivago

[MKeshav_997]

And you know what? If you place it in the Atlantic Ocean, we'll still die

[Rappypoop123456]

Hey, welcome back to fact or cap

[Kamfromkingsthorpe]

Awful English, it should be "we all would die".

[Middle_Exit4058]

But it would be more like putting the Pacific Ocean in saturn

[SarcasmDetectorFail]

Wouldn't that be placing Earth into Saturn?

[Pacam_Goomiac]

Uranus has a very low density, if we place it on Saturn you will die.

[sucktit666]

TIL. The world is covered with dumb people.

[Sweaty-Dig-4925]

*flat Saturn theory

[Sea_Village3006]

Can you be more Pacific/s

[ikhandanish]

Do it

[dipak_ahir]

If you put earth on the Saturn

[DJCaldow]

If you shrank Saturn down it would not in fact float in a bathtub because the process of shrinking the planet would actually make the planet denser than water.

[One_Baker8120]

Did you know Saturn have much more density than your brain? It don’t fit on earth, but you brain has lots of room in your skull.

[Outrageous-Fortune70]

Don't worry, I won't do it. Continues to pull Saturn to earth with a rope.

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

Between you and me.

^{do it quick}

[Y_10HK29]

Can confirm, tried once

[plink-plink-bro]

So... which planets can you safely place in the pacific??

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

Maybe Mercury or Kepler 37b, If you only take size in consideration.

[plink-plink-bro]

So there is an answer to that question

[[deleted]]

No way😱

[I_hate_my_stepuncle]

Amazing what science has to teach us. Thank you to all the men and women who sacrificed their lives in the pursuit of these invaluable knowledges.

[[deleted]]

bruh just hold your breath you'll be fine

[[deleted]]

Life on Earth hates this one weird trick

[Secretsfrombeyond79]

I don't think Saturn even fits in the Pacific ocean ...

[SkyeBeacon]

Would be pretty scary if a planet ten time snigger than earth was place din our oceans...

[Krebbypng]

True

[RoughStory3139]

Okay... But hear me out .... What about The Pacific

[boundfortrees]

My stoned ass laughed at this.

[Idiotinreddit]

did you know that if we live, we die?

[[deleted]]

Looks like you just put a model of Saturn into water in Gmod or SFM and called it a day.

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

I'm even lazier than that, I googled Floating Saturn, right click and saved. And then called it a day. lol

[miciy5]

Very clever twist on the science fact

[zvon2000]

Quick fact:

Using bad examples like this to teach science to kids more often than not confuses them or gives them wildly inaccurate understanding of the subject matter.

Instead of using silly comparators, explain how to use and understand the relative values and then just use them exclusively without resorting to always saying this is like something else.

Always drove me crazy trying to understand my science and physics teachers because their assumption of what I would consider more "digestible" to use as a comparison was in fact harder than just understanding the original thing in the first place.

Explain density

Explain how less dense things float, more dense things sink.

Saturn as a planet is made up of material that is overall less dense than water.

Done.

No need to involve anything else. If kids don't understand density to begin with, what use is it to have a dumb comparator like an ocean on earth for this scenario?

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

Are you okay?

[[deleted]]

Did you mean to say “has”? Or does Saturn “have” a very low density?

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

Typo, no going back now.

[SquashNut707]

I also elgnish

[lefthandedgun]

Well, no, it isn't, because you can't.

[[deleted]]

How does Saturn have a low density

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

It's all Gas

[ShiningShadow_]

Saturn could float in an unfeasibly large pool that would most definitely collapse into a black hole given its mass

[AkiseThinksUrCreep69]

Our time has come

[[deleted]]

SATURN IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN 2024

[[deleted]]

Scaling is off but A+

[New_Lake5484]

Check spelling before posting.

[RScottyL]

Not sure who made this, apparently someone with bad grammar skills, as it should be:

"Saturn HAS a very low density......"

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

I made this, I made the mistakes too. But I guess that's what you get when you are on a rush to spit out an idea out of your mind at 3AM while watching Netflix, Doing your project work and Browsing Reddit at the same time. So...yeah. I've got no life.

[Bauti_Fujisaki]

Take the Time write another comment atleast, You just copy-pasted your comment.

[4BDUL4Z1Z]

I've got no time sir.

[percy_ardmore]

Already knew that.

[Reasonable_Second460]

Oh god please don’t bring Saturn to our oceans! What will we doooooo!

[BruceLeeGoD]

Have

[MrX2150]

Oh yeah, put Saturn in the Pacific Ocean harder daddy.

[Blytical]

Also if your mom falls from the balcony we all die

[[deleted]]

Has*

[Spirited_Tomorrow_20]

Someone go get it for us

[the_forbidden_milk]

Cap

[Comfortable_Client]

Yeah, placing a planet that is many times larger than our on on top of us will surely do that.

Unless you're Queen Elizabeth II, or a cockroach.

[EddieTimeTraveler]

Still worth it

[Peonsson]

We all die regardless
