A lot of people think that to get to orbit, you just go up. That's partially true, but in reality you go up to get out of the atmosphere, and then go sideways really, really fast.

Imagine throwing a ball in the air. If you throw it straight up, then no matter how high you throw it, it just comes back down. Now imagine throwing it across the room. It falls in a curved arc, right? Now imagine throwing it so fast that it goes past the horizon. That curved arc is still there, and it's much longer now.

Now imagine throwing it so hard that it not only goes past the horizon, it actually never hits the earth in the first place. That's an orbit! Of course, the earth has an atmosphere, so it would slow down because of aerodynamic drag. That's why we send rockets way upward—to get out of the air.

So a satellite in orbit is literally just falling constantly, but because it's going so fast, it's always missing the earth. It's for this reason that an astronaut can't "fall off of" the space station. They're moving just as fast as the station is, and so even if they pushed themselves off of it, they would remain in orbit.

You're doing it wrong right now. Just do it right and it will work. Thank me later.

I saw a video once, so I'm pretty much an expert in it.

Yo, I got plenty of experience with stuff, I did lots of stuff when I was younger and still do stuff often, so feel free to ask me about stuff!

You’ll have to pay me to tell you what it is I know and then pay me again to explain it.

The stem on a wine glass has a purpose besides looking fancy. A wine drinker is meant to hold the glass by the stem so the temperature in their hand doesn't affect the flavor profile in the wine. All wines have an ideal serving temperature also. It depends on the specific wine, but in general, reds are slightly below room temperature and whites are slightly above fridge temperature.

I have a lot of experience with ignoring my problems.

Parasitic wasps will paralyse spiders and lay eggs inside them, then the spider will slowly die being eaten alive by wasp larva from the inside.

The secret to good tuna salad is to add something crunchy (celery, water chestnut, firm relish), something sweet (sweet relish, pinch of sugar), hard boiled egg yolk or diced whole hard boiled egg, and a small amount of breadcrumbs or crushed crackers to absorb excess moisture, with crackers being slightly tastier due to added sodium but breadcrumbs being preferred if you need to reduce sodium. You can also substitute canned salmon or similar for the tuna if mercury and pollutants are a cause for concern. And of course, a dollop of real mayonnaise, not artificially sweetened, hydrogenated and whipped vegetable byproduct.
