I just find it so hilarious, space.

Like, at a certain scale, light (the thing we associate with instant) becomes like not so fast. But the distances are just soo incredibly vast lmao I love that we can still calculate it, but it means nothing A light-year, what does it mean for light to go round the fucking yuge Earth 8 times in one second?? 8 times Earth, or even one Earth is so huge it's almost incomprehensible so how many seconds in a year again???

Just be amazed by it, its weirdness and the absurd bigness of it haha

As far as I know (the big) planets carve out their path in their orbit around the Sun. Clearing out all the space rubble, dust and rocks which may start colliding with each other, slowly forming moons that are pulled along by the gravity of Jupiter/the planet.

Jupiter, with its large gravities, cleared out massive areas from the disc of dust and such. Many moons.
