isn't it ironic that God made this thread?

11/19/2007 3:09:59 PM

It would be ironic if we were talking about Mars.

11/19/2007 3:11:42 PM

the solar system is arguably a binary system, as the barycenter of jupiter and the sun is outside of both bodies

11/19/2007 4:23:47 PM

well i guess it is.

just barely though.

and jupiter isn't a star, so we can't count it as a binary system.

that's what my internet tells me

11/19/2007 4:28:09 PM

Yes, but Jupiter would have to erupt ala 2010 first.

11/19/2007 4:28:55 PM

(i meant the binary system thing... i had no clue about the barycenter.)

no

11/19/2007 4:30:33 PM

the sun orbits a spot just above it's surface.
well inside the corona, however.

11/19/2007 4:42:08 PM

i care very little about the point of orbit

we have ONE star

unless you include Nemesis

11/19/2007 4:44:46 PM

i've seen that .gif before but i just watched it again.

i can't even imagine how immensely huge vy canis majoris is. it blows my mind.

i'm not gonna harp on this, cause i don't particularly care if anybody accepts it or not, but there's a very thin line between a gas giant and a brown dwarf
