Big if true. Maybe as much as 330,000 the mass of the earth.
Ya know, that does sound pretty BIG!
With some rough calculations it might be 0.00001578 Light Years far.
I know it is a meme, but I feel this is a little too belittling of climate change being responsible for increase in temperature. Like, I can see this unironically shared on Facebook and twitter with people being “hurrdurr, fake climate change, heat comes from sun!!!”.
My conspiracy theorist mom shared stuff like this all the time. This will absolutely be shared among climate change deniers as they roll coal on their way to the funeral for their daughters who died in the Texas floods.
The number of times I’ve had to explain to adults that the sun is a star is way more than it should be. It never stops being so disappointing too that even the most basic shit, not this exclusively, is just something so many people don’t know, think about, have any interest in and don’t ever read more than the sparse title about that thing in the news (those titles and articles often being partly of fully false).
I’ve explained to many adults, many with college educations, that insects are animals. Understandable for those who don’t realize corals are animals, but they think bugs are plants or something? Smh
Idk anything about stars or solar systems, but when my house gets too hot I just close the curtains and it helps everything cool down. Maybe we can close earth’s curtains and will fix it?
This does happen and it’s an effective way to decrease the temperature:
Might be difficult to implement at scale though.
That’s literally a photo of it happening at the only scale that matters. The solution is that once the moon is there, we just need to stop it from moving away.
Problem solved forever.
It’s not really hard to implement at all but would just trade pest for cholera. We could just burn a lot of coal again, the dustier and dirtier the better. But that’s pretty bad for air quality but it would seriously cool the planet.
A orbiting, remotely positional, moon-sized sun shade? That’s crazy enough to work I think you’ve solved the heatwave here
Simpsons did it!
Why would libs put it there in the first place?
We better destroy it just to be safe
They should try to extinguish it… with water…
This is like some Trump logic right here
SHUT UP ABOUT THE SUN!
fake.
