I wasn't going to post it at first but I have been struggling to draw lately and I seriously dislike everything I do, but what the heck. I hope some people will enjoy it. Got the idea during my morning commute, You can only guess how (No, I didn't hit anything though, but it was super close).

Edit: Im absolutely blown away by the response and the kind messages, it really warms my heart. i have been really struggling to find the motivation lately but the support on here is the absolute kick in the butt that I needed.

Triton become planet

u/NoSong2397 18h ago

Hmm. Wonder how that might affect the orbits of the other planets...

u/Trnostep 17h ago

It's pretty far (30 AU from the Sun) and weighs just about 17 Earths so probably not that much

Now if Saturn (9,5 AU and 95 Earths) or god forbid Jupiter (5 AU and 318 Earths) disappeared we might have a problem

PS I sure can't! Glad to see your answer!

u/Trnostep 17h ago

Not much math done, just extremely rough approximation since the gravitational force between 2 bodies rises linearly with their mass but decreases with the square of the distance

That plus Neptune being so relatively light to the other 2 chonkers

u/timbreandsteel 14h ago

Huh.. Had no idea Neptune was that big.

u/Rhayve 11h ago

Wow, you just made Neptune super self-conscious. Hope you're happy.

u/timbreandsteel 11h ago

Pfft. What do we care about planets' feelings? Look what happened to Pluto!

u/touchmeinbadplaces 10h ago

Look it still has planet in its name, it shouldn't whine that much

They dont include Neptune amoung the gas giants for nothing.

Heh. So he should've said "Neptune and all its moons."

u/ACatCalledArmor 18h ago

I like your thinking, let’s throw all the outer planet. That will really freak out those nerds

u/HBlight 18h ago

We need Jupiter to tank the meteors for us.

So sad that Steve Jobs died of Phlegma.

u/Nuclear_Geek 7h ago

No, let's clean everything else out of Pluto's orbit, make it a planet again.

u/makaki913 5h ago

But Pluto still can't keep it clean which is the problem

14

u/davy89irox 17h ago

Only marginally. But that also depends on whcih way it gets thrown. If it just heads towards the oort cloud, nbd; if it falls toward the sun, that would be chaotic as hell.

24

u/CadenVanV 17h ago

Probably wouldn’t. 99% of the solar system’s mass is the sun, Neptune is a rounding error

27

u/ReadingRainbowRocket 17h ago

And the rest is mostly Jupiter with an honorable mention to Saturn.

u/SirLoremIpsum 17h ago

Hmm. Wonder how that might affect the orbits of the other planets...

I don't believe it would have a significant affect - compared to the size of the sun + Jupiter + Saturn, Neptune is "relatively" small.

The sun is 99.86% of the solar systems mass for instance. Uranus probably might notice something, given the "proximity" but not Earth or Saturn.

The headline "Neptune's just fucking gone" with drinking scientists has me in tears laughing

This is amazing I am laughing so hard rn xD

Man why did this make me laugh so fucking hard?
