What happens when one of these breaks and drains into the sewer system? Algae blooms cause noxious odors and would proliferate quickly in the nitrogen-rich environment of human waste water, potentially building up as clogs in the sewer lines. And if the system drains into a natural body of water, the algae can have devastating toxic effects on the natural wildlife. If it doesn’t drain and instead gets recycled, then the water treatment process becomes much more difficult and expensive.

My scientific hypothesis is that you can caption this image when literally anything and it will still be funny enough to upvote.

The modern definition of “planet” only includes things that orbit the sun.

Honestly, the IAU’s definition of a planet is pretty useless.

The study suggests that some event within the last 350 million years altered its trajectory, preventing it from settling into a circular orbit.

That’s within the current best estimates for the age of Saturn’s ring system… maybe the same catastrophic event that formed the rings is also responsible for the anomaly in Titan’s orbit?

Suuuuure… that’s definitely why you were googling “great tits”

I’m not so sure… At those speeds, it would’ve taken under 10 seconds to completely clear the atmosphere. Even with intense compressional heating, I don’t think it would’ve been in contact with the atmosphere long enough to completely vaporize — although it probably didn’t look much like a manhole cover anymore by the time it escaped.

Arsia Mons! One of Mars’ largest volcanos, and part of an arc of three known collectively as the Tharsis Montes. The volcano to the top right is Pavonis Mons, and further beyond (past the visible horizon) is Ascraeus Mons. The much more famous Olympus Mons is also found in the same region, to the northeast of the Tharsis Montes (which would be towards the bottom right in this particular image).

Interestingly, that massive cloud formation is a yearly phenomenon that happens right before the start of winter. The size of the cloud trail varies from year to year, but it’s not uncommon for it to stretch more than 1000 kilometers.

“And then it got worse.”

But how can set b contain all of the horses if they’re already in set a???

I feel like this could create some pretty toxic incentives.

Like, imagine if the moment a person dies all of their works immediately go into the public domain… What’s to stop a company like Disney from just straight-up assassinating people who create promising IPs? They paid 4 billion dollars for Star Wars — but why not just have George Lucas murdered for a fraction of the price?
