NASA doesn't need to spend more studying Saturn's hexagon. I just solved it with a hand blender and some peas

      not necessarily, usually i print things after i created them with blender and even if jupiter was printed, it would then still be real. just its origin would be … interesting, i mean how many edges, faces and vertices? could we still see and count them with todays technologie? how was it printed - my printer doesnt even support printing liquids to astronimical bodies let alone gas. so many questions !!

        I reckon they didn’t even bother 3d printing it. I think they just printed an image on paper and stuck it to the sky. When it goes below the horizon they scrape it off and put a new sticker up, with an image rendered from a slightly different angle, so it’s ready for the next night.

    Well this experiment happened on earth in earth gravity, while the entirety of Saturn is like a sphere in outer space.

    So we need to send the peas to the ISS and rerun the experiment.

          It’s the same gravity, just in a different position. Saturn’s gravity effects us all, but we show it no respect, hmmph.

        I only.just realised it’s Jupiter not Saturn that has “the 'gon” and blew straight past the title…

        its been a long week, though, so maybe that’s related

        I’ll tell you if your making it… Split pea … You don’t need to blend them. You just cook. If you use a blender at all you need to turn off your stove and walk away. Your not ready yet to make a start and ignore soup. Let alone one your now involving a blender to make.

          I don’t know who is down voting you, but yeah, you’re right, split pea soup doesn’t require blending. Maybe people use whole dried peas instead of split peas blend it?

            Even then just cook them the long the softer and will turn to paste on its own its like potatos. I never have to cook them longer then 2 hours anyway or you already are past mushy peas.

    The people who figured out the math of the hexagon also figured out you could do it with a bucket of water and a turntable.
    Made for good demonstrations when reporting the results.
    (They used more regulated and measured pieces for more rigorous tests. They just also had a bucket)
