Does jupiter stop asteroids for us?
Yea that’s the prevailing theory. Because of Jupiter’s size and position in our solar system it likely intercepts a lot of the nastiest asteroids that are big enough that an impact with earth would wipe out all life. It’s also believed that if it were not for Jupiter life might not have been able to evolve on earth at all
But isn’t the asteroid belt there a belt and not a planet because of Jupiter? That sounds more like a racket to me
it’s a bit of a double edge sword though. jupiter also throws stuff at us as well. (https://www.planetary.org/articles/does-jupiter-protect-earth-from-asteroids-and-comets)
“Only I can bully my little brother!”
This is so true
I love this post
TIL, thanks jupiter!
No, arrows
Which, in turn, keeps the time flies away, thus preserving the space-time continuum.
Of course duh, I shoulda looked at the picture
It even domesticates some of the big ones
How else would you make asteroid cheese
Seriously tho, wouldn’t be here without the big lad. Thanks Jupiter ❤️
No love for Saturn, though?
we love jupiter

Who cut his dick off?

The sack to shaft ratio is ginormous
So much pee.
I believed earth’s moon also shield the earth from asteroids, but I’m not really sure I pulled this info out of my arse
I thought this was the Balatro community for a moment
Fuck you Jupiter, now I have to 9-6
Reminds me of an old Daredevil comic:
Alternatvely: Eww, Earth, you’re infested. Look at all those little things crawling all over you!
