#3012 - The Future of Orion
In conversation about 7 days ago from mastodon.com.br permalink
Attachments
1. A four-panel comic showing the constellation Orion over time: Panel 1 ("Orion Today:") The classic shape of the Orion constellation as seen today is drawn in black dots connected by lines. Panel 2 ("Predicted Changes:") The stars are shown with slight adjustments in position. The red text "Star Movement" indicates the anticipated shifts, and "Star Death (Betelgeuse)" points to where Betelgeuse may eventually vanish. Panel 3 ("Orion in the Future:") The adjusted star positions form a slightly altered pattern. A note in red, "Suggested New Lines," implies a new arrangement for the constellation. Panel 4 Using the suggested new lines, Orion now resembles a T. rex. The stars are connected to outline the shape of a cartoonish green T. rex, with the star configuration adapted to match this new interpretation. Hidden text: "Dinosaur Cosmics"

1. In my new scale, °X, 0 is Earths' record lowest surface temperature, 50 is the global average, and 100 is the record highest, with a linear scale between each point and adjustment every year as needed.

#2962 - President Venn Diagram
In conversation about 4 months ago from mastodon.com.br permalink
Attachments
1. Hard to imagine political rhetoric more microtargeted at me than 'I love Venn diagrams. I really do, I love Venn diagrams. It's just something about those three circles.'

#2867 - DateTime

1. It's not just time zones and leap seconds. SI seconds on Earth are slower because of relativity, so there are time standards for space stuff (TCB, TGC) that use faster SI seconds than UTC/Unix time. T2 - T1 = [God doesn't know and the Devil isn't telling.]
