Axial-tilt Memes

Uranus is just chilling, rotating peacefully on its side like the cosmic weirdo it is, when some massive object decided to absolutely wreck it billions of years ago. Scientists believe an Earth-sized body smashed into Uranus during the early solar system's chaotic demolition derby phase, knocking it onto its side and giving it that ridiculous 98-degree axial tilt. Now it literally rolls around the Sun like a bowling ball instead of spinning upright like a normal planet. The punchline? Uranus is still dealing with the consequences of that cosmic sucker punch 4 billion years later. Talk about holding a grudge. Meanwhile, the guilty party probably got yeeted into deep space or absorbed into the planet itself, never to face justice. Truly the ultimate hit-and-run incident in planetary history.
