Las Vegas Sphere

Galactus did not survive the destruction of the last universe just to be disrespected in this way.

So ending any rumours that the moon is made of cheese.

Where would the mole of moles fall on this chart? what-if.xkcd.com/4/

Can’t argue with data

You're looking for the Zeal Corporation's famous half-mile jawbreaker, which is as large as it is aggressively okay.

Has anyone tasted the big sphere in Las Vegas yet?

Has anyone tasted the Las Vegas sphere?

One needs to remember: xkcd.com/388/

Somewhere between a grape and a melon, presumably

Please provide sourced proof of tastiness level of moon or I will be forced to ignore this whole proposal.

if you're paying, you'll find someone willing to kick it.

"Wake up honey--a new 'Island of Stability' just dropped!"

One must deduce that the demon core was tasty.

Data is based on a flawed samples. You sampled the ENTIRE grape and likely most of the melon while you only sampled a very tiny fraction of the earth. Had you been able to sample the entire earth with it's warm creamy nougat inside, then the entire premise of this chart could disintegrate.

Or a pure tasteness particle

Earth is a bite-sized sphere. You can ask Galactus.

Is it cheese? I hope it's cheese.

The guy from KoTOR II agrees

How is the Earth not substantially tastier than the Moon??

Needs more data points

I don't know why but I imagine the moon tastes bitter.

The microbes on earth push it a little higher

Sure they stored it in a cool, dry, place but that cheese is pretty old.

I'm also confused. Isn't the moon made of cheese?

The earth has avocados and heirloom tomatoes which raises the average

Tastiness changes with age, though. How else could you account for little kids eating dirt?

Your data has lost its marbles (and BB's).

Grapes are a little tastier than melons? I disagree!

This doesn’t factor the moon being made of cheese. Also the earth having a cool crunchy refreshing outer with a warm eggy interior sounds like an experience. I think this diagram needs an alternate perspective.

Who has tasted the moon to get this data?

Randall have you tasted the moon? Tell us what you know!!!!!

Extrapolating.....

It would potentially be canceled out by the large variety of non-tasty spheres on Earth.

😂 It's of course even further to the bottom (right) of the graph...

redrawing the trend after learning that all the raindrops are not, in fact, lemon drops and gum drops

WAITER: and our dessert special is a neutrino sorbet, chef has some locally foraged neutr-- ME: I'LL TAKE TWELVE.

atoms confirmed as the tastiest things

I hadn't even read the alt-text!

This is cheese erasure

❤️👍 but neither is the earth or moon… but to first approximations everything is a sphere in physics… as the higher order irregularities wash out quickly with range…😂😂😂

Physics - 1st approximation

It's "your mom" isn't it ?

Oh no youve done it now. Its going to be cheese, its always cheese, right now someone out there is looking at this post as a challenge, cheesemakers are strange, they seek the challenge in everything and right now one of them is thinking I could fulfil the prophecy of a huge tasty ball, no problem.

Would you like some fresh ball bearings?

I know how to taste the rainbow, but how do I taste the moon? Need to know for research.

Mmmmm... Cannibalism 😋

This is going to be my new go-to explanation of why averages not always work 😃

That big sphere at EPCOT is 50m diameter. Must taste good.

A slightly bigger Bennu, perhaps

A neutron star?

Counterpoint: I’m of the understanding that the moon is made of delicious cheese…

Have you tasted the moon tho

Hmmm A sorbet in space, 800 meters wide, like 8 football fields of sugary sweet ice end to end.

I guess you could try to lick an alien ship from Independence Day?

There's a joke in here somewhere about cherry-picking

Moon data incorrect. It tastes like cheese. Delicious cheese.

Lunar regolith is a pain to chew, just sayin'

Maybe Randall doesn't like cheese.

we actually dont know if he bought moon rocks for the taste and was disappointed

makes sense, but now I'm worried about the data integrity, since that would mean the grapes and the melons are getting double-counted.

Beach balls taste worse than soccer balls. It's due to the sand having no flavour compared to grass, some forms of which can be made into bread.

Judgment on moon and earth tastiness reminds me of toddlers trying new foods. Just putting your tongue on it doesn't count as actually tasting it.

So Earth is slightly tastier than the Moon. Noted.

The latest in Orb Contemplation Discourse

This makes sense. Blueberries 🫐 are smaller than grapes 🍇 , and they’re tastier.

I have a question about Deez.

love it how the Earth is marginally tastier than the Moon

The Moon is made of cheese and is therefore tasty. You can't argue with that. It's science.

Mean Value Theorem FTW...

So what I'm reading is we SHOULD eat the Las Vegas sphere...

as melon is on the earth, earth has a taste of melon

This is also the plot of “Cloudy with a chance of meatballs”

Salmon roe, caviar, microplastic beads are all missing from the chart. I think it’s sinusoidal if you’re more thorough in your sample.

are you trying to tell me that msg is not ground-up The Moon

Data seems sounds though I'm curious when you tasted the moon.

my takeaway is that scientists should start searching for a way for us to taste electrons

This is amazing

I dunno...I feel like Neptune might be minty...

I think in the middle is probably the world's largest ball of mint flavored dental floss.

A single grain of salt could be considered a sphere: Quite tasty too eh? Just keep avocados off the plot, yuk……

this is false, we all know the moon is actually made of cheese therefore the moon is very tasty

This is a tongue-in-cheek conclusion that if the pattern holds, an 800-meter sphere would fall on the line that separates "tasty" from "not tasty," hence it would taste "okay."

Hm, I would put melons way lower on the y axis.

Must... not... say... it... MUST... NOT... SAY.. IT... ...ORANGES AND COCONUT SHELLS

Has anyone actually done a taste test on the OSIRIS-REx sample?

shouldn't it be 2 for symmetry ?

I can't help but feel some important small spheres are omitted here.

And a 1-nanometer sphere that is the best thing ever

And this also proves quarks are tasty

@earth-chanvr.bsky.social facts

i believe that sphere is called "yo mama"

Is a softball noticeably less tasty than a baseball?

According to the data pluto will be more tasty than our moon. To bad we cannot prove it. And atoms musst be a great pleasure. How delicious will be neutrons an electrons? What about entering the area of negative size? I guess this will be heaven.

Well... the earth is an oblate spheroid, so I think the research question should be revised to how does the spherical configuration of objects affect its flavor. Obviously this wasn't peer reviewed.

@neildegrassetyson.com

Perhaphs this sphere might be thine mother?

Duh fuck are you talking about. the moon is made of cheese and cheese is most tasty.

An 800m diameter sphere is startlingly close to the volume of all humans on earth. Just saying.

I question the power-law assumption.

Or the sight reasoning

What about the Michael Crichton novel? I feel like that’s missing on this graph.

I refute the findings that The Earth is "not tasty".
