-34 [-] We are going to take over the world.

1325: There are no walls on this floor. You wonder how the ceiling is held up, then notice the rocket engines on the outside of the next floor firing at full power. The rest of the building seems to be drifting slowly upwards, so you hurry on to the stairs to minimize the climb.

Scott Manley can drive across the Mohole with a rover.

-32 (-) We are the majority

Chuck Norris can make pigs fly. Scott Manley can put a pig in orbit of Jool with one burn.

-31 (-) We will go so far down your engines will have an Isp of 0!

-29 (-) Nope

The oceans would probably just clump in the middle if there were any. This probably would happen in most cases. For this instance we're assuming the planets have similar masses and densities, and their orbits are slowly decaying. If it decays slowly and steadily enough, they would eventually just touch and it would be a fast-spinning double planet. The only problem I see with this is that the gravitational forces would be stronger in the middle, so the planets would be prone to tearing each other apart. The material in the planets would want to clump at the barycenter, and the planets would likely deform and break. Here is a picture of how this probably would turn out. The gravity is much greater on the inside, so the planets would be spinning faster in the middle than on the outside. This would lead to a lot of stress, probably enough to tear both planets apart. Then there would be a spinning disk of matter which eventually clumps back into a new planet.

When I first read that I thought you meant his actual mailbox, like the one the mailman comes and puts mail into TheGeekno72 has 3 words and 1 number. A triangle has 3 sides. Seeeeeeee the connections???????? Coincidence? I THINK NOT! The symbol of the illuminati is a triangle. The triangle has one eye, just like TheGeekno72's one number. TheGeekno72 IIZ ILUMNAITE CUNFREMID WOAW YEE

Isolating yourself from the rules followed by others is cheating!

Like my mad MS Paint skills? This is an idea for a hypothetical two-lobed planet. It starts as a binary system with similar planets, and the orbits decay, slowly bringing the two planets together. Eventually they come so close that they touch, and you get a rapidly spinning double planet, at least for a short time before it all melds together into one bigger planet. There was an article a while back about a star system doing this, so I wondered if it could happen with planets too. My question is could this planet exist, at least for a geologically short period of time, or would the tidal and gravitational forces be so great that both planets break apart before getting close enough to touch? Wouldn't it be weird to walk from one planet to another?

Nothing is impossible. That statement can be interpreted two different ways. The first interpretation is that it means that anything is possible, nothing is quite out of reach. The second is that it is impossible to achieve "nothing." No matter how hard you, or even the universe tries, something will exist. I think that the second interpretation is most correct, even though it is the less obvious one. We can observe things, and we are conscious, therefore we know that something exists. It doesn't matter if the universe is a simulation or a giant power generator or just a random blob of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff, we know that something exists. Therefore, nothing doesn't exist. So nothing is impossible. If nothing is impossible now, then nothing has always been impossible because nothing stretches out across everything. So if there was something a trillion years ago but there is nothing now, then there is still something that has existed. With that philosophy, there has always been something in the multiverse, but there has never been nothing, nor will there ever be. Therefore, the universe had to come into existence because otherwise there would be nothing. That's a little paradoxical and redundant but that's just the way it seems to be when we come to these kinds of questions. At the beginning of time there was a singularity, that's a zero-dimensional point with all the energy of the universe contained in it. Therefore, the concentration of energy was {total energy of the universe}/0. We all know that there are no rules when we divide by zero. So maybe that's how anything can happen, because there are infinite possibilities when we divide by zero, and when the singularity picks one, like the roll of an infinity-sided die, a new universe is born. All that thought is making my head spin, I think I'll go do something else now.

Calling yourself a cheater in a game where you are supposed to call other people cheaters is cheating!

They've actually been legal since like July. And it would be really easy to put a concave cube between my 7x7 and 6x6 as they are much bigger than a 3x3. But I'll pass because my Moyu Weilong works just fine for me (might have to get some new stickers in a few months though...)

I know they are tidally locked, but their proximity and relative masses could have drastic effects on each other's internal activity.

These new images are really exciting. It's amazing how completely different Pluto really is from what we expected, we don't really understand how a world so far out can be so geologically active. Could it be because of tidal interactions with Charon?

We already have one of those...

Every time I see this thread now...*sigh*

Normal fonts are cheating. You are obviously a cheater.
