Planets As Animals – To Scale 3D Mass Comparison
If Earth is a labrador dog and Venus is a human child, then gas giants like Saturn and Jupiter must also match masses with their own animals… like an African forest elephant and a herd of 7 giraffes. You can understand the real scale of vast celestial bodies by comparing their relative sizes to animals…

How to Make a YouTube Video in 1987
Decades before software like Premiere and iMovie made video editing cheap, easy, and accessible for everyone, the only option was chaining a conglomerate of vintage 80s technology – multiple camcorders or VCRs and a TV – to craft custom analog video. Then the Videonics system changed tech history forever. With professional-grade setups costing up to…

The $68 Million Instant Movie Disaster (Polavision)
Nearly 50 years ago, the Polavision camera blended Polaroid’s revolutionary instant film with on-demand home video – and the result was a landmark advance in analog technology that would become a mystery of science and a winding international journey into vintage tech. Because now, generations after Edwin Land bet his half-century legacy of innovation and…

Just 78 blue whales vs a Labrador? I mean that’s still a lot but I expected way more to be honest. Like that all animals on earth wouldn’t be enough. I’m kinda blown away right now…

Cool! Shout out to Pluto! He’s back! And since you did the moon too, I want to see ALL the moons.

The video title should probably say mass comparison, not size comparison, unless I’m missing something.

What the fuck is popular science now? I thought this was a meme post, a very educational and good meme post, but still a meme post, and then the pop sci logo came up.
Mad lads. Utterly mad, but god damn if it doesn’t make me excited to see what more will come

This was really awesome. Could have did the asteroid belt as a school of fish.
Oh, and on the moon, is equal to a squirrel with the nut or without the nut. I did notice any other animals holding food.

Interesting. If one takes a “beast” to be a planet, then the Book of Revelation takes on a more coherent narrative.

Just remember this helpful mnemonic: “I’m not Kitten when I tell you this 6-Year-Old’s Labrador chased a Squirrel to Turkey where it saw 7 Giraffes. Also, did you know that the Elephant, Grizzly Bear, and Horse are all scared of Rats?”
@megadog9305
April 5, 2024 at 9:22 pm
Ah yes, the old mnemonic, 78 Blue Whales, Kitten, Child (6), Labradoor (and Squirrel (Grey)), Turkey, 7 Giraffes, Elephant, Bear (Grizzly), Horse, Rat. It’s honestly the easiest way to remember the planets and also Pluto and the Moon.
