Y'know, the funny thing about this random thing I did, in replacing the planet Saturn from a 2019 wide-field image by the w/a jelly donut (almost definitely bc I'm hungry & craving donuts lol), is that *IF* we were to suddenly replace the planet part of Saturn (i.e. the gas giant itself, the ball in the center of the rings) with a jelly donut of equal *SIZE*, the resulting would actually be MUCH MORE MASSIVE than Saturn itself!
You may have heard the fun fact that if you dropped Saturn 🪐 into a gigantic bathtub, it would in fact FLOAT on top of the water, because water is denser than Saturn, and thus, it would float! The hint as to why is in the term we apply to both Jupiter and Saturn (and sometimes Uranus and Neptune as well, but those two are more accurately called "ice giants"), which is "gas giants"—we call them that, because, shocker, they are primarily, and almost completely made of gasses, and in Saturn's case, it is made up of about 75% (the lightest element) and about 25% (the 2nd lightest element), with trace amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, etc.
But a jelly donut on the other hand, is *not* made primarily of gas lol, and would be denser, and more massive than a gas giant like Saturn if one was made to be a similar size!
Isn't science fun?!? 😂😂😂
(Now I'm off to find a donut 🍩😉)
Do whatever you please with this fun little donut planet I created! 🌓🪐❤️🪐🌗 @zachthekhajiit #HubbleSpaceTelescope#DonutPlanet#Hydrogen#Helium#Science#Planet#Space#OuterSpace#Jelly#Treats#Dessert#Love#GasGiant#DonutGiant#DonutsForLife#Astronomy#FunFact#FunFacts#FreeToEdit#FreeToRemix#FreeToShare#hubblespacetelescope#donutplanet#hydrogen#helium#science#planet#space#outerspace#jelly#treats#dessert#love#gasgiant#donutgiant#donutsforlife#astronomy#funfact#funfacts#freetoedit#freetoremix#freetoshare#local
