Do you know the order of the Solar System planets by heart?

I do.

The reason why I ask is because I am a science tutor and I notice many of the kids don't know the order of the solar system planets by heart....

Do you know how much time will it take for a photon to travel from the surface of the SUN to the Earth by heart?

reply

[–] aliensalmon (5701) a year ago

Sure.

8 minutes

I'm beaten by precision and accuracy!

About 8 minutes and 20 seconds is the right answer in our time. Though, for a photon it should take 0 second and travel 0 distance because the speed of light is constant in all frame. This is due to spacetime dilation in Einstein’s theory of relativity. I always find it fascinating when think of it - if a photon can "experience", then the universe would be zero dimension. Big object like planet Earth move instantly and everything that would happen in it's future just happen instantly.

Nope. First four and last, Pluto. And I still pronounce it your-ay-nus.

Kids don't know if they're boys or girls - why would any expect them to know the order of the planets?

Maybe not.

Some TikTokers baby just died after having not gone to the bathroom in 7 days.

TIKTOK PEOPLE DON'T COUNT AS PEOPLE.

So I can't count on you to give my TikTok of me eating Tide Pods a thumbs up?

reply

[–] Kowalski (76773) a year ago

NOPE

[–] parkerbot (9702) a year ago

C'mon man, the way I demolish that Mountain Fresh pod and puke it up in my mouth and then eat it again is certainly one of the pinnacles of modern entertainment?

YEAH...OK...I WOULD WATCH THAT VIDEO.

[–] parkerbot (9702) a year ago

Well, now that I've peaked your interest, I've moved the video to my OnlyFans account.

For a small monthly fee of $860.00 you can watch me eat Mountain Fresh pods, Spring River pods and Caramel Latte pods.

I also play the accordion in the nude but only on the first Thursday of the month and I only know how to play the old Hockey Night In Canada theme.

My very eager mother just sent us nine pizzas.

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.

no.... Sun, mercury, Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn , Mars, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto

I assume the ones closest to us and the sun are hot, so I went with redish. Everyone knows Pluto is last since it got kicked off.

reply

[–] aliensalmon (5701) a year ago

You're close. Only Mars in out of order.

reply

[–] tcrum (31665) a year ago

Probably should have gotten that since we have a Mars rover and not a Saturn or Jupiter rover:)

I always mix up Neptune and Uranus and I still think include Pluto at the end, but everything else I remember.
