Please!!
That sounds delightful
Jupiter is great. Massive, but not causing any aggro or anything, just a big friendly daft planet, probably hasn’t even noticed any of the others.
It’s got about 80 moons all following it around like toddlers, fascinated by it.
Why are you being like this?
I love looking at the moon. I think it’s my favourite thing in the sky after chemtrails
Are birds planets?
I think there could be a big bird planet up in the sky, much like the long dog from neverending story
I’ve always felt an affinity for Jupiter.
That’s a point, actually. They could do with revamping some of them, change up the textures. Cover one in feathers, for example. Would look lovely blowing around in a breeze
Mission accomplished. I think Mercury would be a lovely name for a girl.
Got these for Christmas. They’re so cute!!
I hardly know 'er!
I’ve got an awesome set of wooden fridge magnets of the sun and planets.
I think it was from Muji.
We could move the earth out past Neptune maybe, see how it changes the view. Just put some earth in a rocket and send it out there, then another rocket, then another, gradually rebuilding the earth bit by bit much further out. Would give us an opportunity to reorder some cities and towns that have got a bit messy as well as we rebuild them on Earth 2.
I am SO sorry!
think the unwritten rule is that if a thread is more than 6 months old then it’s fine to recreate a new one
It’s okay - we’re allowed to discuss the same thing more than once! I just posted it for reference
Pretty sure I read/saw a thing* that said the only reason that Earth hasn’t been pelted into smithereens by asteroids and debris is because Jupiter’s so massive that its gravity catches all the deadly space nonsense before it gets a chance to blow us up.
Great bunch of planet, life here wouldn’t exist without it.
*maybe that Brian Cox planets series?
FYI: here are the planets by their HGATR scores, with their musical equivalents:
planet | hgatr score | equivalent |
---|---|---|
Mercury | 2.93 | Girls Aloud |
Venus | 3.5 | Daft Punk |
Earth | 3.36 | TV on the Radio |
Mars | 3.81 | The Kinks |
Jupiter | 4.14 | Joy Division |
Saturn | 4.64 | Aretha Franklin |
Uranus | 3.45 | The Flaming Lips |
Neptune | 3.4 | Madonna |
Pluto | 3.11 | Lana Del Rey |
you know what, Uranus is probably the most underappreciated one because it’s only ever a silly joke to people.
if it had a sensible name, we’d see that it’s pretty great.
Uranus and Neptune for me, Clive.
