Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
this reminded me of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
everytime. EVERYTIME he says Uranus....
Neptune is similar to uranus..
One question I've always had is do the gas giants have some sort of rocky core? Or are they literally just a big ball of gas? If they are just gas what the hell is keeping it all in a ball?
Is there a subreddit for more simple information like this ?
It's pronounced MAH-KAY MAH-KAY.... and I'm willing to bet Eris or even Sedna are more well known than Haumea or Makemake.

Very Hitchhikers. I enjoyed it.
And the Jupiter myth is perpetuated. While Jupiter may clean up some long term comets and eventually removes some short term comets as well (though it can fling them in towards Earth just as well), the vast majority of objects in any given year that cross Earth's orbit are asteroids; and, that's due to perturbations caused by Jupiter.
Furthermore, currently the most widely accepted theory for the cause of the Late Heavy Bombardment is the migration of the gas giants
