Cosmic joke Memes

NASA's cosmic burn game is stronger than dark energy! The meme perfectly captures science's most notorious "we'll deal with that later" moments. Poor antimatter—theoretically should exist in equal amounts to regular matter, yet mysteriously MIA from our universe. And Pluto? Demoted from planet status in 2006 after faithfully orbiting for 76 years without missing a day of work. Both relegated to scientific footnotes with the classic "if it doesn't fit our current model, we'll just... ignore it for now" approach. The scientific equivalent of ghosting your most complicated friends!

Behold! The elusive Mercury transit across the Moon—a tiny dot that's basically playing cosmic hide-and-seek! The joke here is that Mercury transits are actually observed crossing the Sun, not the Moon. What you're seeing is just a random speck or image artifact that someone hilariously labeled as Mercury. It's like finding Waldo if Waldo was a planetary body and completely in the wrong place! Astronomers everywhere are either crying or cackling right now. That red arrow pointing dramatically at nothing is the cherry on top of this astronomical bamboozle!
