I don’t trust the liberal science agenda so I did my own research. Using some back-of-the-napkin math and my telescope, I’m now blind from looking at the sun through a telescope. This is being transcribed by my trad wife. My results:

2 > 1

This one checks out, folks.

You must be a terrorist because that's MUSLIM MATH! Those are not Christian numbers and feel it necessary to report this comment to the FBI, the Federal Biblical Investigators.

As someone who worked in a gas station for 24 years..

sigh

I’d do it. I’d suck it up. I’d make some damn good friends along the way and then I’d never maintain those friendships and feel guilty for the rest of rest of my life. “Just call him dipshit. He’s going through a divorce! Just go fishing! Pleaaassse! Ok, here goes. Tomorrow.”

Always tomorrow.

This is one of the most fascinating comments I've ever encountered on Lemmy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You’re fascinating. 😘

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We should be best friends. 👊

I have no idea how I ended up here. Swear to god I was on the post about the trolley, saving people, and small talk. No shit. Never even seen this post.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

This happened to me once too. The Lemmy gods brought you here. You are now a part of the meme

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

As God as my witness I thought turkeys could fly. We've all been there.

No this post was the correct location. Don’t second guess yourself. You were always meant to be here!

Jupiter and Saturn are brown dwarves, and fit many definitions of "star".

They are both large enough to have developed a hydrogen plasma core furnace that dissolves the rock and ice that was once their core. They are more than just a hydrogen atmosphere, down to the core they're a big ball of plasma undergoing all of the same physics as stellar tissue, except the pressure at the center isn't enough to ignite fusion.

Uranus and Neptune, meanwhile, are likely too small for this, and maintain a fluid ice layer and rocky core beneath their hydrogen envelopes. There is not enough hydrogen for it to take over these worlds. Therefore, they are planets, not brown dwarf stars.

Jupiter and Saturn, however, have grown large enough for the hydrogen to have turned to plasma and dissolved and supplanted their cores with a plasma furnace.

The solar system has three stars. We are not too early to explore other star systems. We know of many planets around Jupiter and Saturn. The extraterrestrial planet with most earth-like atmosphere and surface geology that we know of is Titan, and it's in our neighboring (sub) star system. Huygens and Juice and Europa Clipper and Dragonfly are humanity's first missions to planets around other stars.

dated July 1997 issue of the magazine

Here they are on Wikipedia's list of Y-class brown dwarves.

Jupiter and Saturn are in fact brown dwarves.

Stellar classes are OBAFGKMLTY, from most to least massive.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Did you even read that page you linked to? Right at the top, it says:

They are a mix of brown dwarfs and planetary-mass objects.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes.

Y dwarf stars are a mix of what was previously classified under those mass classifications.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"Y dwarf stars" are not even a thing!

Neither brown dwarfs nor planetary-mass objects are stars.

Are you just a troll?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (5 children)

They are!

Electromagnetically and gravitationally and chemically they act like stars.

Gas giant simulations are often performed by stellar codes such as mesa. Stellar physics and stellar simulations with fusion turned off. Morphologically, they are stars. We should move on from the cold war brain's fusion chauvinism.

They are fundamentally different objects than planets. They have their own planetary systems. They're stars, just unlit.

Juno gravity results imply Jupiter's core is dissolved hydrogen plasma sludge, also known as the dilute core model. Kronoseismology (using saturn's rings as a seismograph; Cassini read it like a DVD) implies the same is likely true for Saturn due to the discovery of g-mode waves mixing with the f-mode signal detected by ring occultations.

I wandered in here from computer science, and I’m going back to solving parallel cache coherency for a bit of light relief.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is really fascinating! Today I learned.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You didn't learn because none of those links were about "Y dwarf stars," which are not a thing.

I just saw that series recently. What a wonderful show.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It really is a wonderful show. I watched it again recently because it's that time of year, so this was on my mind. 😁

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I had never seen it before, but I watched it all in one evening while my wife and daughter were out and then I watched it all again with them the next day because I knew they had to see it too, and it was just as good a day later.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

That's so nice to hear. Hopefully it becomes a yearly tradition to watch it.

We introduced it to our daughter this year. She was a little scared but enjoyed it nonetheless. I caught myself wishing there were more shows like it, but it's so unique and that's probably why I love it so much.

And this prove what exactly...??

Once again, 2 > 1 holds true.

Thank fuck. I was worried for a second.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

That there are more hydrogen atoms in a single molecule of water than there are s's in your entire comment.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

that stars don't have hydrogen atoms
