Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for September 11, 2022

That’s not a planet, it’s a beach ball … And you don’t want to see the kid whose toy you just destroyed.

It’s surprising the rocket didn’t pierce the planet.

Inflatable. Deflatable. Deflated.

Like Pluto, no longer officially classified as a planet.

“That’s one small stab for man, one giant collapse in a heap for mankind"

When will Marvin the Martian show up?

But did anyone hear it?

Are the inhabitants of such planets airheads?

I wonder if anyone could claim a Tyson’s Sphere?

Nailed it!

Full of hot air I bet

A little prior research should have revealed the planet had no substance.

There are ice giants.

Hilarious!

I wonder if you can consider it a gas planet.

brewster doesn’t look like he’s having a gas…

Usually, when you do this, it POPS rather than just deflating.

Claiming land as territory of a given country (or world) is no longer done (except in the Communist People’s Republic of China). When Apollo XI landed on the Moon, it left a plaque saying “We came in peace, for all Mankind.”
