A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
That's what the premise of this post was. It's a common saying to "shoot something into the sun", which sounds easy at first but is actually quite hard to do. That's the joke
My argument is it's more energy efficient to shoot something towards the sun that will have the same result as hitting the sun than it is to get it out of the solar system.
It's just not true though, unless you do an out then in maneuver.
