The Exoplanet Personality Test

Ever notice how the universe pulls the same tricks as your internet connection? The meme brilliantly compares the dramatic quality drop in YouTube videos when WiFi weakens to the difference between JWST and Hubble telescope images! The James Webb Space Telescope's crisp, detailed nebula shot (full WiFi bars) versus Hubble's more basic version (weak WiFi) shows just how far our cosmic peeping technology has evolved. It's like upgrading from standard definition to 8K ultra-HD for the cosmos! The universe has been there the whole time, just waiting for us to get better reception. 🔭✨

Scientists spend half their careers smacking down pseudoscience that pops up faster than those whack-a-mole critters! From "Oumuamua is alien tech" (it's just an interstellar rock, folks) to "alkaline water with lemon" (which is... chemically impossible since lemons are acidic), the hammer of scientific method keeps swinging. Don't even get me started on "AI-powered string theory" or building Dyson spheres in your backyard. The arcade game of academia never ends - and the high score belongs to whoever debunks the most nonsense before their coffee gets cold!

NASA spends billions on Mars rovers, and this is what they send back? A candy bar on a red planet? Classic space agency budget justification right there. The wordplay is deliciously astronomical - our galaxy (the actual Milky Way) viewed from our neighboring planet (Mars). If only interplanetary travel were as simple as unwrapping a chocolate bar. Meanwhile, actual astronomers are still trying to explain to their families that no, they can't see aliens through their telescopes.

The ultimate perpetual motion machine that physicists don't want you to know about! This brilliant circular logic proposes solving two problems at once: dump tumors into black holes, which emit Hawking radiation, which causes more tumors, which we can then feed back into the black hole. Voilà—infinite energy! Sure, it violates several laws of physics, medical ethics, and probably common sense, but who needs those when you've got a tumor-powered universe? Stephen Hawking is simultaneously facepalming and laughing somewhere in the multiverse.

Oh look, another conspiracy theory trying to debunk basic physics! The meme is questioning why meteor craters are circular instead of elongated like the second image. Spoiler alert: it's not because NASA is lying to you. When a meteor hits Earth, the explosive energy radiates equally in all directions regardless of impact angle. The resulting crater is almost always circular because the energy transfer creates a spherical shock wave. Even meteors hitting at shallow angles produce circular craters—it's not some grand cover-up, just good ol' physics doing its thing. Next they'll be asking why water doesn't stay in the shape of the ice cube tray. I swear, teaching freshman physics gets more challenging every year...

The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one. Water (H 2 O) has exactly TWO hydrogen atoms, while our solar system has exactly ONE star. Someone failed both chemistry and astronomy in spectacular fashion. The stick figure's journey from "wait, that can't be right" to "oh, I see the problem" is basically the scientific method in its most primal form - minus the peer review where your colleagues mercilessly mock your counting abilities. Next up: discovering there are more electrons in a grain of sand than there are grains of sand on Earth. (Spoiler: also wrong.)
