    Yeah, then you realize that every planet in the solar system would fit side-by-side between the earth and the moon. Space makes my head hurt sometimes.

    2.5 times as massive as all the other planets combined.

    It's barycenter with the Sun is outside the sun's radius. So technically they both orbit each other.

    I cannot get excited about fusion anymore. It has been 10 years away my whole life.

    Whoever told you it was 10 years away was pulling your leg. Still not 10 years away.

    It's the old joke, my man. Fusion is always just ## years away! I am just skeptical we will ever get it done in any meaningful way, short of some new physics breakthrough. The temperatures and pressures are just too immense. But I will always push for research into it.
