Why did they have to use “plunge”?💀
They knew what they were doing

Maybe it happens sometime after 40?
It doesn’t.
Nooooope
My dad is retired and still laughs at pull my finger. Makes me laugh as well.
I honestly don’t know which name is better: Uranus or George.
Yes, the guy who discovered the planet wanted to name it after King George, but everyone said that was too political, so it was called Uranus.
Seeing how Uranus is a Greek in origin named after one of their mythological figures, the proper Greek pronounciation would be more like “Ooranos”
That seems pretty similar to the german prnunciation
It would probably have been Georgia or some derivative of George.
Let me locate it for you

You’re a nuss.
That’s the official pronunciation. Practice it, and one day you can partake in astrononical discussions without giggling!
Nah I’m good fam
The great thing about this is that “a” can be pronounced as either long or short a. At least, that’s how it’s used where I live, I’m not sure if that’s actually “correct.”
Jesus christ…do they not teach you anything in school anymore??
astronomers changed the name of Uranus to end that stupid joke.
It’s true, they changed it to urectum

For real? What’d they change it to?

Important question, do they mean
- 63*V_Earth <= V_Uranus, 64*V_Earth > V_Uranus
or
- They actually considered sphere packing and thus 64*V_Earth <= V*_Uranus

Is it good or bad that I know what you’re talking about?
It means that you are an erudite person.
