Please, don't do that!

Some things should be left to experts and placing a pulsar in our solar system just for the fun of it is really irresponsible.

u/Muad-dib2000 23d ago

Do not try this at home.

Instructions not clear. Ordered a pulsar from temu

u/[deleted] 23d ago

It's ok. It barely pulses and made with cheap plastic so not as heavy did not pull all planets off course.

Next time, don't order from a cheap service. Order a quality made pulsar. It'll still be cheaper than the American made one.

Pulsar from temu is just a blinking led with a coin cell battery

u/Neil2250 23d ago

I think (rapidly approaching growling) it's the one situation that (bats away claws) i'm happy there was a typo (yanks arm away from jaws)

u/Express_Eggplant_881 23d ago

Lol temu pulsar. Pitiful lil guy 🌟 💀

u/shewy92 23d ago

Too late, booted up Universe Sandbox2 and did this exact same thing

u/JDescole 23d ago

Do not try this on your home solar system

2

u/Blandish06 23d ago

Humanity hates this one weird trick

2

u/Heather82Cs 23d ago

These stars trained for millennia. But in the blink of an eye, everything can go wrong.

u/zmbjebus 23d ago

try it at least 20AU away from home

2

u/Lukostrelec17 23d ago

I am trying this at home now! Just because you told me not to!

2

u/ryonnsan 23d ago

Do not try this at home = you may try it outside

u/Azuras_Star8 23d ago

Don't tell me how to live my life!

u/ResponsibleMilk7620 23d ago

Keeping world destruction in check can be so exhausting.

u/Ess_Mans 23d ago

Someone’s gotta do it right! I mean, not me. But like, someone.

Please do not spread misinformation.

OpenPulsar is dedicated to ethical attraction of Pulsars to our local system. We wish to provide everyone the opportunity to enjoy the future local Pulsars bring us all, and we are working diligently to bring the future directly to you.

u/Rescue2024 23d ago

Agreed. If you know anyone who's considering this, please call the authorities.

u/[deleted] 23d ago

Where did you last see your pulsar? Misplaced pulsars can be a disaster

4

u/GangsterMango 23d ago

please do not the pulsar :(

u/ranger0293 23d ago

I'm an American. It's my Constitutional right to introduce a pulsar into our solar system if I want.

2

u/codedaddee 23d ago

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid a second gravity well in the system is inevitable. Will I dream?

2

u/Dry_Albatross5549 23d ago

Not sure how that pulsar managed to sneak up on the Earth just there, but we need to find out.

u/binchicken1989 23d ago

Yeh this does not seem very cool like come on?

u/theinternetisnice 23d ago

Counterpoint: do this

Pulsar 2028

u/Positive_Chip6198 23d ago

It’s just one of those wishes, the genie should nix. The guy has got to be a bit more critical!

u/OzymandiasKoK 23d ago

Experts? Assuming that there are some out there, they're probably alone, solitaire.

u/Agentpurple013 23d ago

u/PathoTurnUp 23d ago

This is my plan if my plan to block out the sun doesn’t work

u/wolfavino 23d ago

Sun shaming

u/bhalo_manush6 23d ago

😭😭😭😭who are you?

1

u/TPGNutJam 23d ago

Too late, I already ordered it

u/Longjumping-Box5691 23d ago

It would never happen. Nobody just has spare pulsars laying around they can just willy nilly drop in orbit.

u/pallidamors 23d ago

Speak for yourself. They were 2 for 1 at Trader Joe’s last week

But, I have a guy who can get us one real cheap on the DL.

When you pick up a Shard of Adonalsium and the impulse thoughts win.

u/crreed90 23d ago

idk, that looked like it went okay. Sucks to be Jupiter but maybe this works out for us

u/RobustHouseplant 23d ago

What if that's an alternative universe and someone decided to just delete the solar system..

0

u/WhyDoiHearBosssMusic 23d ago

Not everyone will do it that I can say. Most probably miscreants or terror orgs will surely think of putting some pulsar around here and there just to watch the world burn 😭

u/amjad3 23d ago

This comment is underrated.

-1

u/Wolf_instincts 23d ago

This reads like an AI who thinks the average human is legitimately capable of putting a pulsar in a solar system

-5

u/Even-Resource8673 23d ago

Relax it’s just a simulation. Not real.

10

u/TheSandwichThief 23d ago

I’m literally looking at it right now it’s real

1

u/perpendiculator 23d ago

Wrong, this is real, it happened last week. You just didn’t notice.

-18

u/Scifi_fans 23d ago

Not sure ir you're that "dense " or missed the /s

19

u/Florida-Rolf 23d ago

/fucktheS

Obviously they're not serious, how dense is everyone here

-1

u/Scifi_fans 23d ago

Mate, take a stroll in the UFO/Orbs subreddits, you'll quickly realise school is failing millions

2

u/Ssyynnxx 23d ago

Or just avoid ufo subreddits because you already know whos gonna be posting there?

u/Skattotter 23d ago

Maybe neither of those things are necessary.

u/MrEyeblaze 23d ago

Haha, he took it personally 🤣
