@dr.starkid: Did astronomers find an atmosphere on the small icy transneptunian object TNO 2002 XV93? Seems like that may be the case! Not totally clear yet #space #Science #Astronomy #TikTokLearningCampaign #LearnOnTikTok

What size object would a person need to stand on for it’s surface to feel/look curved and not flat? Sorry this is unrelated but with this being so small it sparked this question!

We found the aliens hideout. The atmosphere is obviously just pollution from their reactors and construction work.

like an atmospheric cloud of rocks, dust, ice shards, liquid droplets, and gasses released from a major collision gradually rolling back down the very weak gravity well to resettle onto the object. cool!

This is the content I joined TikTok for. If we can get a actual real photo of an exoplanet, save proximal Centauri my whole loved for space will be fulfilled.

Knowing the age of the universe, What would be the operational definition of this object being impacted by another? 1 year? 10,000 years?

"A frozen graveyard full of icy rocks" no more! Love how you explain occultation physics so clearly—makes deep space astronomy feel so approachable. Great video! 🙌🪐

Couldn't it all be some form of extremely porous or jagged formations on its crust that simulate a diffuser of sorts?

Wouldnt the symmetry of the occultation start and end suggest a homogeneous blockage (like atmosphere) more than a result of rock and ice from an impact? Great content! ✌😎
