yay! rocket comics are back!
so for the next bunch of comics i’m going to attempt to explain rocket science in 4-panel-comic form. which should be a piece of cake, i mean it’s hardly brain surgery, right?
100 billion
boy i sure do seem to love trying to fit complex existential discussions into single tiny 4-panel comics.

gotta cover all the important stuff first.

you can never trust that girl when she’s wearing her lab coat.
helium-3
helium-3 is theoretically useful for nuclear fusion (instead of fission), a technology which still isn’t yet viable, and even if it becomes so, it might just be cheaper and easier to build a bunch of solar panels and batteries on earth than set up a mining operation on the moon. still, it makes for a neat science fiction concept, which is something i guess.
and yes, technically i just made a sequel to the comic “helium” called “helium-3”. hire me, microsoft.

i hope people don’t expect me to do a comic about every element of the periodic table. chemistry jokes are hard.

nice idea sedna, but there is one tiny flaw to this plan. you’ll need approximately 2,000 balloons to lift your body off the ground and think of all the plastic pollution that would create.
ancient
it’s easy to think of the ancient egyptians as living at the dawn of civilisation and ourselves as living closer to the end of it, but on a universal scale, we are still the ancient egyptians.
also if you’re baffled by how long 100 trillion years is and want me to put it into perspective: imagine 1 trillion years. now multiply that by 100. there.

fun fact: the average 8-year-old weighs approximately 4.3kg on the moon. make what you will with that information.
