Anyone else get anxiety looking at pictures of large planets/space? I don't have a fear of heights but this stuff is really spooky to me.
ITT post space.

what a pussy faggot you are
"ooooh I get anxiety looking at space because big and we small xd"
fuck off, you should have posted this in a cringe thread
>>7646047
Me too. It's just so creepy, a massive ball hanging in nothing. Uranus is creepiest. So featureless, just sitting there. "WHAT DO YOU WANT????"
"Uranus"
:S

Sounds like a phobia because that makes no sense. How is space spooky?

No.

If you mean agoraphobia then im with you on that. I get anxious seeing photos of solar eclipses especially

I picked this out just for you

Yeah go back to reddit faggot, only quality discussions such as x degree is a meme and engineering tier threads are allowed here.

You should try Titans of Space on a google cardboard. It's amazing.

Never got anxiety from this shit.
Could be because I'm viewing it from a 2D 16:9 screen or I'm actually a rational thinker.
I once had a similar feeling about what it would be like to crash into neptune, and wrote a short paragraph about my imagination of it.
I stood beside the plate window, gazing out to my inevitable doom. The once beautiful blue is now my ominous fate, its swirly skies the jaws of some empyrean beast, the jungle man was never meant to venture. Horror filled me at the conversion of wonder to warning as the ship’s systems failed. I am going to crash into its void and become nothingness. If the winds don’t rip me apart, I will be crushed by its pressure as I plummet to my doom, my particles finding their place in the core of this cosmic toilet. It dawned on me that the ancient Greeks didn't see this isolated planet as the warm source of interest our western colleagues did. No, they saw it as I see now: a cold, unforgiving tyrant. Neptune, you will be my grave, as I descend into your pale blue umbra.
Ashes, I return to you.

No, but seeing venus, jupiter and mars and picturing them in three dimensional space (also figuring out where the sun is) is pretty intense. They might still be on the horizon later tonight

not until you made me think of it
>>7646047
that isn't what it actually looks like
google "focal point"
probably means you have tremendous spatial awareness. Most people probably picture mentally in 2d. Looking at planets probably just on some level remind you how fucking big it is and were spinning around on a grain of sand in vast nothingness. wow I'm high.

Gotta admit that pic is a bit spooks.
Feels like the cosmic version of watching a whale swim past the view port of a sub.
A question, /sci/.
If an object roughly the size of the isle of Sardinia was in orbit around Earth, could you see it with the naked eye if you were standing at sea level?
>>7647661
Sardinia is roughly 260km long by 100km wide, for frame of reference.
>>7647666
An object that size is about 8% of the moon. So if it were orbiting at the same distance of the moon (which is pretty far out) it would have an angular diameter of about 1800*.08=144 arc seconds. Venus is between 10 and 63 arc seconds so yes it would be visible as long as its in direct sunlight and its more reflective than venus.
This isn't a real photo right?
I know that feel OP.
Sorry for /v/, but mission 2 of Homeworld 2 spooked the shit out of me, because of the fucking Angel Moon hovering above me all the time, scaring me shitless. I wouldnt want to be caught by its gravity field and crash on its hellish surface.
Space is a scary place.

triggered hard to be quite honest family
>>7646047
I don't understand what's in the right of this image.
oh wait is that my moon?
Not OP but I suffer from the same.
I'm fucking terrified in an existential level by looking at humble space pictures.
dunno why.

No its not. Its lovely. It would be nice to float through it while you die. Especially if you have a good view of planets and shit.
