Population Of Celestial Bodies By Subreddit Size

astronomy-memes, reddit-memes, planets-memes, moon-memes, solar-system-memes | ScienceHumor.io

The internet has spoken, and apparently the Moon is the most popular celestial body in the solar system! This pie chart hilariously measures planetary "populations" by subreddit subscriber counts instead of actual scientific metrics. The Moon crushing everyone with 119,000 followers while poor Mercury sits at a measly 450 is peak internet astronomy. Notice how Mars has 79,000 - clearly all those rover photos and colonization dreams are paying off in the Reddit karma department! Meanwhile, Pluto still hanging in there with 6,000 loyal fans despite being demoted from planet status. The true cosmic hierarchy isn't determined by mass or orbital position, but by upvotes and meme potential!

When You Find Your Gravitational Soulmate

Finding someone who shares your passion for gravitational wave astronomy is like finding a cosmic soulmate! 🖤🖤 The top part shows actual LIGO data from GW150914 - humanity's first-ever detection of gravitational waves from two black holes spiraling into each other 1.3 billion years ago! That little "chirp" pattern is literally spacetime rippling as two massive black holes crashed together at half the speed of light. When you meet someone who gets as excited as you do about listening to the universe's most violent collisions... that look of connection is priceless. It's basically gravitational wave scientists' version of finding someone with the same obscure music taste!

Iconic Character Design

The scientific method has nothing on character design! While we're busy writing 20-page papers to describe a single protein, animators just need a distinctive silhouette. That last one? Literally a black circle. Yet somehow we all know it's a black hole that's about to devour everything in its path. Physics simplified to perfection—no equations about event horizons or gravitational singularities needed. Just pure, existential dread in circle form.

The Precision Paradox

The precision paradox strikes again! Mathematicians weep when they can't achieve perfect solutions, while cosmologists are throwing a party when they're only off by a factor of 100,000! But the real kicker is in the comments - a physics professor rounding π to 10 "for ease"?! That's not approximation, that's a mathematical war crime! Even cosmologists are clutching their calculators in horror. Next thing you know, they'll be saying gravity is "roughly down-ish" and calling it a day!
