Planet-Collision Curiosity and Space-Learning Sprint
July 22, 2020 Lehan Edirisinghe
I spent the day trying to understand planets, collisions, black holes, and scale itself, turning impatience and anxiety into a genuine little sprint of space-learning and wonder.
Struggling to See a Collision Between Two Planets
I don't get it. I don't see the collision between the two planets clearly..
Understanding the Planet Collision and Asking About Orbits
Josh Bjerke I just watched it again. I get it now. I think I skipped across the video impatiently the first time I saw it. Tee Hee.
Have two planets ever collided? Do you think that a sun has some sort of gravitational pull or force that causes all the planets to move the way they do -- and to avoid hitting each other?
Feeling Small After Learning About a Galactic Black Hole
Josh Bjerke I'll try very hard to understand and remember this. Thank you so much. Makes me feel pretty small and insignificant haha. I didn't know there was a super massive black hole in our galaxy which our solar system revolves around.
Discussing an Australian Accent and Comparing Connery With Dalton as Bond
He's perfect for the role, save for his Australian accent -- very likeable person
But I guess, after Timothy Dalton, Sean Connery was best as Bond and he had a Scottish accent you can pick up if you listen carefully
Apologising for Skipping the Planet Collision and Asking About a Black Hole
Gary ████████ hehe I'm a bit impatient and excited and anxious about some business deals -- please forgive and excuse my fragmented attention. I'm not exactly the ever patient Job!
I thought that the collision would happen midway through.. I just skipped through the 2 minutes about 3 or 4 times. When I didn't see it, I was confused and wondered what had happened. It was a bit careless on my part and I do sincerely apologise -- and promise to avoid repeating this kind of mistake.
After watching again, I saw it collide a few times.
I didn't know that two planets have ever collided. I also definitely didn't know we had a super massive black hole in our galaxy. Is that true? Holy crap, that's scary. How come we haven't been suckered into this black hole?
Making Birthday Wishes for Friends Instead of Myself

Exhibit 1. Birthday Wishes
I need to start this thing where you wish all your friends on your birthday and make a birthday wish for each of your friends -- instead of for yourself. Or at least, you get wished happy birthday and you make a birthday wish for all of your friends. I dunno. I think that's a lot better. It's always all about me, me, me in this world.
