You Are Now A Satellite
Houston, we have a physics problem! 🚀 The meme brilliantly illustrates Newton's Third Law - "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." When one astronaut shoots the other in space, the recoil sends the shooter flying backward while the victim becomes Earth's newest orbital body! No escape pods, no rescue missions, just the cold, hard reality of conservation of momentum turning a space murder into a cosmic self-yeet. Space: where even your crimes obey the laws of physics!

The beautiful irony is that not knowing physics is precisely what's about to teach you physics in the most memorable way possible. Nothing says "equal and opposite reaction" quite like a scope-shaped bruise on your forehead. The universe always finds a way to educate the unwilling!
