This meme is a stellar play on both astronomy and mythology! Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, is shown eagerly reaching for Mars and the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth). But then Saturn comes along and grabs Jupiter instead! It's a cosmic joke referencing the famous Goya painting "Saturn Devouring His Son" from Greek mythology, where the Titan Cronus (Roman Saturn) ate his children to prevent them from overthrowing him. In our solar system, Saturn is actually Jupiter's "father" in mythological terms! The irony is perfect - Jupiter wants to gobble up the smaller planets, but ends up being the meal instead. Planetary cannibalism at its finest! 🪐

M-star enthusiasts confidently chopping onions one minute, then completely losing it when they learn red dwarf stars might not support complex life. The astronomical equivalent of "I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying!" Red dwarfs make up about 75% of all stars in our galaxy, so finding out they're probably uninhabitable is like discovering 3/4 of your dating pool has a deal-breaking flaw. Those tears aren't from the onion—they're from crushed exoplanet dreams!
