The Third One Is A Little Too Quiet For My Liking

The buff cosmic entity in this meme represents every cosmology student who's heard the infamous "folded paper and hole" explanation for wormholes one too many times. You know the one—"imagine folding a piece of paper and poking a hole through it to connect distant points." The joke here is that this seemingly complex spacetime concept is reduced to such a simplistic analogy that anyone who's heard it enough times could theoretically get ripped just by doing ONE push-up each time it's mentioned. The poor person's shocked "JESUS CHRIST" reaction perfectly captures that moment when you realize your cosmology professor's groundbreaking explanation is the same kindergarten-level analogy you've heard since your first viewing of Interstellar . Physics educators everywhere are feeling personally attacked right now.

Every science teacher knows the dread of the inevitable Uranus lesson. No matter how you pronounce it, those teenage giggles are coming. I've practiced saying "YUR-uh-nus" with the straightest face possible for 20 years, and still break into cold sweats before that astronomy unit. Pro tip: just draw the planet on the board and point at it silently. Or better yet, skip straight to Neptune and pretend the 7th planet doesn't exist. What's one less gas giant in the grand scheme of existential classroom torture?

The planetary community's most dramatic breakup continues. In 2006, astronomers demoted Pluto to "dwarf planet" status after 76 years of planetary recognition. Now everyone's whispering about getting back together like it's cosmic gossip. The meme captures that desperate plea whispered into someone's ear—the astronomical equivalent of texting your ex at 3am. Pluto's sitting 3.7 billion miles away wondering why we can't make up our minds. It's literally too cold for this drama at -375°F.

Mind-blowing but absolutely true! A tiny 100 mL of water contains roughly 3.3 × 10 24 water molecules, while astronomers estimate there are "only" about 10 22 to 10 24 stars in the observable universe. That's right – your morning glass of water is literally more packed with molecules than the entire cosmos is with stars! Next time someone says you're not significant, remind them you're basically gargling a universe before breakfast. The cosmic ram riding through space is just as shocked as we are by this ridiculous scale disparity.

Look at Neptune getting the glow-up treatment with each new telescope! From Voyager's grainy blue blob in '89 to Hubble's "I'm trying my best" image, and then BAM—Webb shows up and suddenly Neptune's strutting around with rings like it's auditioning for Saturn's understudy. Thirty years of technological advancement and we've gone from "Is that a planet or a blueberry?" to "Oh hello there, fancy space jewelry." Next telescope will probably show Neptune's been hiding a coffee shop and three moons we never noticed.

Content Both shapes have the same number of holes. Try it yourself. Start with a cube of playdo. Take a chopstick and push it through until it pokes out. Expand each hole. Repeat until each face has a hole. You only need to poke 5 holes in the cube to create the final shape. The first poke creates an opening in the top and bottom. Each following poke adds a hole to one of the 4 side faces.
