Jupiter, you’ve got it goin’ on. Yeah. And Saturn, you’re lookin’ mighty sassy. Oh, and Neptune! Mighty nice. Yeah, you’re some hot planets, for sure. Hope you don’t mind me sayin’ so.
Uh-oh. Tony’s got sunstroke. He’s talkin’ about hot planets.
Hey Huey Lewis sang a song that said “sometimes bad is bad.” Well, sometimes “hot” means heat. And so, that ‘splains all my hot planets slang talk.
But seriously, those planets are putting off some serious heat energy. In fact, my go-to source (a PhD. from M.I.T.), Dr. Walt Brown, says “Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune each radiate away more than twice the heat energy they receive from the Sun. Uranus and Venus also radiate too much heat.”
And before you get the big idea that all that heat energy comes from nuclear fusion, I’ll tell you “NO.” Dr. Brown says that, according to calculations “…it is very unlikely that this energy comes from nuclear fusion, radioactive decay, gravitational contraction, or phase changes within those planets.”
So! Who cares?!
Well, anybody who’s into health and self-care should care. Because your long-term health and wellness could be deeply affected by how long you believe those planets (and our little, blue Earth) have existed.
And planets that still radiate a lot of heat are good evidence that our solar system (and universe) are fairly young. Yep, I done said it. Young.
Because hot planets have not existed long enough to cool off.
Plain and simple.
Planets and stars couldn’t have existed for millions and billions of years. Because they would have cooled off at least way more than they have. And they couldn’t have been here forever. Because they’d have reached the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation temperature of outer space. Approximately 2.73 Kelvin.
That’s cold. And basically dead.
And while planets that radiate as much heat as those in our solar system are basically uninhabitable, they’re not dead.
But if you don’t believe in and trust God, forget I even mentioned any of this. You definitely won’t have to worry about cold temperatures where you’re headed.
There’s a choice between Heaven and hell.
It’s YOUR choice, so you better choose well.
