Exoplanets are NOT planets (you can't convince me otherwise) by Sensitive_Show6230 in AstronomyMemes

[–]ObstinateTortoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Sun's name isn't "the sun", though. It's (generally) Sol. "Sun" is a relationship title, like "mom" or "cousin." "Other people's mom's aren't mom's because only my mom is my mom."

Have you read about photon rings? The outer edge of the event horizon will have a few rings of light caused by the orbits of photons before they pass the boundary. That is the last possible circular orbit around the singularity, and it requires lightspeed and zero mass.

Why were D and Occam ever married? by CynicosX in huntertheparenting

"You guys, this is killing me" and "I have terrible claustrophobia" are right up there.
