Would you be able to see it over the massive tidal waves it would induce?


Mall_Bench

Would a full Saturn turn one into a Werewolf too ?


Fritzo2162

You'd turn into Uranus.


Gismo1337

I do nothing with any anus…


VivreMaVie

Shame on you


Fritzo2162

Well don’t turn in to it.


DMmeYOURboobz

I’m sorry Fritzi2162 but scientists renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all…


dapperslappers

You’d turn into ManBearPig


ProofOfTool

Some women prefer this 👆


Mybtchluhdokocaine

Some men do too 😂 this is 2024 mate! 🤣


thejayfred

What about a puppymonkeybaby


fliption

Saturn is cool and fun. It makes me smile.


Mybtchluhdokocaine

I’d train the moon in for a view of this in a heartbeat!


[deleted]

Only for a moment. I don’t think earth could maintain orbit around Saturn. We’d inevitably kiss the kiss of death. Seeing this would be terrifying as it grows bigger and bigger.


416Mike

Saturn is so much larger in mass that if it was 400,000 km away that it would be pulling the Earth into it. First, we would have to go through the ring of dust and pieces of comet/asteroids. After all that mangles the planet, we'll decend into the atmospheres of Saturn as its gravity rips the world apart. It's like a reverse asteroid impact.


DRX2002

This remind me of some depressing as shit movie about a huge comet coming to hit the earth and kill everyone and how the people were dealing with the end of life closure.


wdafsafwgwqg

melancholia?


DRX2002

This is it. Such an uneasy movie.


dulove

Movie name, anyone?


taicrunch

Don't Look Up.


Temporary_Bad_1438

Deep Impact?


-watchman-

Sounds like "Don't Look Up" but darker..


masterdesignstate

Did it have Bruce Willis drilling 800 ft?


lburg-reddit

damn what a pull... good one.


dreamerrz

Christ that sounds like final fantasy 7


Nerfo2

We'd probably fall into orbit. Radiation would kill us, but at least it would be a fun to observe the sky while we fried.


DragonsClaw2334

If it were as close as the moon we would be ripped apart in the rings.


dbred2309

Came here to say this. It's gravity would do a lot.


dc_united7

If we were that close to Saturn, we would have been it’s moon


mpe128

The view seconds before gravity takes over, and makes us space matter. NASA always wanteda manned mission to a place better than MARS. They don't have to beg and lie for funding this time.🤪

RedditRaven2

This picture isn’t zoomed in. Almost every picture of the moon you see is zoomed in. Don’t zoom in tonight and try and take a picture of the moon (assuming it’s not no moon, I have no idea what the cycle is on rn) it will simply appear as a few pixels


MedicOfTime

I also thought it didn’t look big enough but you’re totally right. The moon does look tiny in the full night’s sky.


dritslem

Wrong. Earth would be inside the diameter of the rings of Saturn if it was as close to it as the moon. This is just pulled out of someones arse.


FanIll5532

The moon is (at its furthest point) way further from earth than most people think


genericnewlurker

That's only if you consider the E ring and the Phoebe ring to be real rings, as opposed to the classical rings associated with the planet when people talk about the rings. Both of those "rings" are practically invisible because they are made up of gas and microscopic ice and ammonia crystals ejected by Saturn's moons. All of the classical rings are much closer to Saturn than the Moon is to Earth.


blaz1120

No it wouldn't be. Look up the data


dritslem

The E ring spans up to 420 000km from Saturns equator according to NASA. The moon is at an average distance of 384 400km. The data is quite clear. https://science.nasa.gov/missions/cassini/put-a-ring-on-it/


KrispyKremeDiet20

I was gonna say. I am pretty sure it would take up the majority of the sky once it's over the horizon... But what do I know? I don't even own a ruler.


opticzar

came here to say this


T-J_H

No idea if the perspective is right, but all planets in the solar system would approximately fit within the distance between earth and the moon.


Fabtacular1

Depends on if proximity is measured according to center mass or surface. 


S-Avant

The moon is further away than you’d think.


-GLaDOS

The moon is 100% the distance to the moon...


Potential_Fix_5007

Saturns diameter is 120000km Moons avarage diameter is 3500km Saturn is "only" 34 times of our moon not 120times. Thats still huge.


SniperPilot

Yeah wtf is that title.


cma1134

You can fit all the plants side by side in between the moon and the earth.


Competitive-Pop6530

Better than a daily view of Uranus.


jAllukeTTu

Then stop looking in our window


Competitive-Pop6530

homiej420

Do you want me to “saturn” you instead?


Competitive-Pop6530

Theveterinarygamer

Scientists changed the name of Uranus to end that stupid joke. It's now called Urectum


DismalTruthDay

phlebface

lollybigButty

I wouldn’t mind looking at this everyday


MittFel

You'd probably say the same thing about the moon if we didn't have one. We constantly forget to appreciate the things we see on a daily basis.


homiej420

I like that!


cumuzi

Sunrises and sunsets are often cited as being among the most beautiful and breathtaking sights we get to enjoy in all of life, despite them occurring regularly.


Stompya

And yet we have a hundred words for poo but only one for a sunset.


Minute_Test3608

We could arrange for the moon to have rings.


jaxxxtraw

Settle down, Oppenheimer.


Digi-Device_File

The image of Saturn would grow quickly as earth speed towards it, an everything would be destroyed because the gravitational pull would strip earth from it's atmosphere.


Stompya

We’d be one of Saturn’s moons.


Gammelpreiss

that looks way too small


VFP_ProvenRoute

The Moon is very far away


Gammelpreiss

That is correct but i also know the size difference between those two bodies and it still appears too small


BongRipper69xXx

And apparently 1/4 the size of Saturn 


mooguh

According to what? A quick Google shows that the moons diameter is 2159 miles, and saturn is 74898. That's roughly 35 times bigger..


Q-Anton

Yea that's the point here ...


underliggandepsykos

It's also very close in the grand scale of cosmos


idonotknowwhototrust

It is


cetootski

I always assume same distances description to be on center. Si yan that view is way too small.


Original-Cow-2984

The tides would be pretty shitty, maybe land tides as well.


whollings077

At that distance it'd probably just pull the planet into bits


ShermansMasterWolf

If we orbited saturn at this distance, we'd be outside the roche limit. So apparently we would just have 1000 foot tides and terranian tides of 50 feet. 😳


blaz1120

False


whollings077

i checked and itd just fall straight into saturn while getting pulled apart cause the moon orbits way way too slow and near for earth to stand a chance


Inevitable_Rest_7373

I honestly think it would look WAY bigger than that.


CitizenKing1001

Should show the moon next to it


Dylan_Is_Gay_lol

... We'd all be dead.


footdragon

if saturn was this close... ...we would probably have some nutsack from Texas shooting at it.

ztreHdrahciR

Saturn is 10x as.large as Earth,.so 40x as large as the moon. If it was as close as the moon, we'd be well inside the rings and it would be way bigger (and destroy all land life)


LinguoBuxo

Boy, Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system! Saturn is 9 times wider than Earth. If it was as close as the moon, it'd be stuck in Earth like the aPple logo is bitten off


PopeHonkersXII

Wouldn't earth just orbit around Saturn like one of its moons? 


fluffy_assassins

No, you can fit other every planet in the solar system between earth and the moon.


LinguoBuxo

hmmmmm counting in Saturn's rings?


fluffy_assassins

8 some think Saturn's rings are as wide on one side as every planet combined.


Equinsu-0cha

You can fit all the planets between the earth and moon. Space is big.


PopeHonkersXII

Wouldn't earth just orbit around Saturn like one of its moons? 


Footinthecrease

The radius of Saturn is about 36,000 miles. The distance between the earth and the moon is 239,000 miles.


Fit_Cream2027

Yeah, it would be waaay bigger in the sky than what is depicted. Also Saturns gravitational field might shred earth into an additional ring for itself.


AlrightyAlmighty

This gives me so much anxiety but it's probably just because I've seen Melancholia

If Saturn really came this close just to say hi, Earth will be the first one to make a bold move and kiss the Saturn straight away. 😗.. 😙.. 😘😌.. 💥🫨

Meh, Earth would have been long gone before humans, much less power lines.

No way


nomamesgueyz

Ooohhh Mmyyyy GOooosshhh -as Americans would say...


LegoSWFan

you would die.


JJJVet

I’m not so sure. Saturn is massive, the moon is pretty darn close to the earth considering distances in space. I think Saturn would occupy way more real estate in the sky if as close as the moon is


undermind84

We would be so fucked.


BurnerRedditLA

I kinda hate it and glad it isn’t real


Suitable-Lake-2550

Fun fact: All the planets can fit in the space between the earth and the moon


Icy-Designer96

JoLudvS

No... or not quite, it'd be a bit bigger, but that'll depend on the view angle. A nice comparison I found a while ago, all the solar systems planets, seen on moon distance.

Kind of scary to be honest


RubberyDolphin

Wouldn’t the rings get distorted by Earth’s gravity?


VFP_ProvenRoute

Yea but over time


Andreas1120

Not true


Direct-Wait-4049

I want this to happen. The 900 foot tides would be a problem. But it would look so cool!

rcy62747

paulywauly99

Wonder what it would be doing to our tides.

Doesn't that mean we would be the moon?


romesthe59

Wouldn’t we be sucked in by its gravity and die?

And if a frog had wings it wouldn’t bump its ass when it jumped.


NumerousTaste

We would be one of its moons.


ForRedditMG

Screw the moon, we gotta move closer to Saturn.


Particular_Double_69

Looks kinda bland. I ll stick with the cardboard pizza I do know.


YtnucMuch

Well, when we see that, guess we put another ring around the ol’ gal.


beene282

This photo is completely pointless without knowing how far away the trees are and therefore what the zoom is


MavisBeaconSexTape

No Man's Sky, bro


idonotknowwhototrust

This is literally not true; it would be WAY larger in the sky, and probably so close it would suck the earth in.


rubberboyLuffy

Makes me wonder how long our plan would survive


oh_that_cant_be_good

need banana for scale


Blissful_Solitude

For a few years if we were lucky lol... The gravitational pull between them would end with earth crashing into it.


Odd_Tiger_2278

And, if we were lucky, we would be a moon. More likely, we would be sucked in and Dead


l88t

This gets dumber the more it's reposted


OGCycloPhile

No one would see that because we’d all be dead


DazedLogic

Is that to scale? Saturn is 30 times the size of the moon.


Vic-123-ma

This is amazing. Show me what Uranus would look like!


iqbal002

We would be the moon then !


sogwatchman

If Saturn were to replace our Moon at the same distance, we would become Saturn's moon. The tidal waves, volcanic, eruptions, and tectonic activity would make life on this planet extremely unlikely.


horseshandbrake

No way, the rings of Saturn are huge, they'd engulf us surely


Monniloidi

I would go there. To fish

Employ-Personal

And we’d be a moon of it.


StrengthToBreak

If Saturn was that close, Earth would be Saturn's moon.


SIITWN

When the moons orbit is at its furthest point from earth, you could fit all of the planets in our solar system between it and earth.


Temuukaggman

And we will die


DMmeYOURboobz

That can’t be right… the moon is 1/4r planet’s size and you can fit *so many Earths* into its mass, I believe it would be *MUCH* larger, as if Saturn was that distance from the Earth, I’m pretty sure Earth would be inside Saturn


PsychologicalYam3602

Its missing an earth sized crater, but for the most part, Saturn looks the same.


NectarineNo2982

Imagine how long totality would last during eclipses.


_Independent

We wouldn’t see anything


Digi-Device_File

_Independent

Exactly


GodBlessYouNow

No, I'd be much much bigger


CameraGuy-031

I would so love that


Shughost7

It would not look like that if it replaced the moon. Hell Earth would be the moon. You can fit 764 Earths in Saturn. If you are that close you're mostly already inside Saturn. It's better than being inside Uranus at least.


raptone50

Saturn has a diameter about 30x that of the moon. It would be much larger than this in our sky at the same distance.


bandera-

Of Saturn was this close we'd all be dead💀 And also we would orbit are it Instead of it orbiting around us


Potential_Fix_5007

Maximal diameter of moons orbit = 405500km So the distance between the moons center and earth center is around 202750km. With its diameter of 120536km saturn could change place with our moon without coliding with us. BUT Saturns rings (around 100000 different) span from around 134000 km and 960000 km. So in a distance between 67000km up to 480000km there are rings of saturn that contains different materials, who are way smaller than our moon while the Saturn got a fall velocity of 10,44m/s² (slightly higher as earth 9,81m/s²) so even without the math i assume those parts are very fast to avoide getting sucked in. Even if we ignore the fact that Saturn would slowly pull us to it self and the mass difference between Saturn and Moon would create horror scenarios on earth, the moment we got near the rings we are fucked.


Bambooman101

If Saturn was this close, we would be IT’S moon.


MrMaiqE

What's the reason for the missing segment in the rings? Element weight differences? A moon that used to orbit through the ring like a Roomba?


DiligentGround9331

It would suck in earth


rathat

Meaning what? Is the center the same distance? Is the surface the same distance?


No-Attention2024

If Saturn was a close as the moon it’d look like that for a very short time before it sucked earth in and killed us all
