Space talk: Planets line up 6/3/24

[Lemon Cheesecake]

The moon is cool to look at anytime ... it was out today during the daylight hours!

Ikr, the moon is great

Daytime moon, what a boon, over sand dunes, from morn to noon
Daytime moon, makes me swoon, I could sing a tune, or put it in cartoons
Daytime moon, like a white balloon, wrapped in a bumpy cocoon, acting like a loon
Daytime moon, no thugs or goons, but maybe raccoons, in the month of June


Ok, that one wasn't the best but shhhh

The moon was pretty last night

[Lemon Cheesecake]

The moon was bright!

[npixelz]

And big and yellow!

Did you check out the live stream for Mars?

Yopu can replay it if you miss it live. It takes 16 minutes for it to beam the image to us here on Earth so i guess you could kind of say it isn't exactly "live", but as close to it as we will probably get in our lifetime!

I'm too lazy to open multiple tabs

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Otherwise it is something we will not be able to see with our eyes unless we went to Mars.

[npixelz]

Ehhhhh

It'll be a memorable experience for me until I forget about it next week because my memory is terrible

[Gingerale]

It would be cool to walk on other Planets.
I guess the closest we might come is walking on different terrains here on Earth- like the deserts for Mars.

[npixelz]

Are gas giants solid? Like, can we walk on them?

[galled]

Probably not. You'd get crushed by gravity and radiation would probably cause you to decompose very quickly.

Either way, I don't think we know what goes on in the core other than it's VERY hot.

[npixelz]

I see!

5 Planets aligning 6/17 before sunrise!

"Mercury will be the last to come into view, about an hour before sunrise. If you go outside at that time, you'll be able to see all five planets stretching across the sky — from Mercury down by the horizon to Saturn higher up in the sky — until the sun rises."
