Once you realise the so called "sun" is really flat, the answer becomes obvious.

They pipe the oxygen in from behind the sun.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 38 minutes ago

space contains all of the oxygen

It's just very angry

The sun isn't burning. Wtf are you talking about? The sun is a projector. Projecting our lives onto this planet earf.

The sun is a government projection you idiots

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

I thought only the Republicans projected

The sun is actually a sad FAILED star! SMALL! When you look at the stars I look at Big stars strong stars. The sun is Nothing! Crooked Mercury props it up! That's why Mercury lops so bad now. Sad. The other stars they want toake our sun into one of those shithole stars. BLACK HOLES!! Not me though I love the Sun ask anyone. No one can take care of the sun like me. We're practically the same color

Simple. It's the combustion process of the luminiferous aether, which is like the cosmic equivalent of air, just finer and undetectable by modern instruments. See, the sun doesn't need oxygen like regular fires because it's tapping into this vast reservoir of aether that permeates the entire universe. As the sun rotates, it creates pressure waves that compress the aether particles, causing them to vibrate intensely. These vibrations generate heat through a process called “aetheric oscillation.”

Now, since the sun is massive, it can harness an unlimited amount of aether, and the energy release is what we experience as sunlight. Think of it like a giant cosmic steam engine, except instead of coal and water, it's running on pure space aether and high-velocity vibrations. And that’s why it keeps burning without needing any of that "earthbound" oxygen nonsense. It's all about the oscillation efficiency, really.

You should present your findings to the queen, this is a very important development in the field of astrological studies

[-] [email protected] 12 points 4 hours ago

Like rocket engines in space, the sun has its own oxidizer tank. Let's hope it won't run out anytime soon.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

Oops! I punctured the tank.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

I think it’s got about 3-4 billion years left in the tank, if I remember reading correctly. It won’t be humanity’s problem.

I think that's precisely why he works so well for Mr robot

When I was a kid, I had no context for a lemur and saw a photo of one in my grandpa's encyclopedia. I thought for the longest time lemurs were human sized and their faces were so creepy and haunting to me. I think of that lemur when I see Rami Malek

they're actually was oxygen in space but they used it all as fuel for the stars and since then they've been converting them to electric.

secondary fun fact: burning all the oxygen in space as fuel has caused space to heat up and is what's leading to the imminent "heat death" of the universe.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 5 hours ago

No oxygen in space? Dude, there's tons of it, it's just all getting sucked into the sun. The further away from the sun you get, the more oxygen there is.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago

Like, almost 100% of all oxygen in the entire universe is in space, rather than Earth:-P.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 5 hours ago

This is to blame on solar panels. Modern ones are very black, i.e. a serious lack of light, creating a photonic imbalance that forces light upwards, where gravitational clustering creates an illusion of a burning spherical object.
If you are in doubt about this, check old photos- there’s no picture of the sun before the invention of solar panels. Same goes for paintings, although really old ones have a sort of symbolic sun-like object, which may be caused by the solar panels on visiting aliens’ starships (ref. Von Dänicken, 1968).

solar panels. Modern ones are very black

Is this why the far right hates solar?

[-] [email protected] 18 points 5 hours ago

Trick question. The sun is in the sky (daytime) not in space (nighttime)! As we all know, the higher you are, the less there is oxygen. That is because the sun burns most of the oxygen in the sky. Fortunately plants produce oxygen in the daytime faster than the sun burns it. It's common sense really.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 5 hours ago

This is solid science. 10/10 would smoke again.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

Wind turbines are fanning the flames and keeping it hot.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 5 hours ago

Don't tell me you still believe in oxygen! The sun is made of phlogiston, so it instantly ignites. Since there's no air in space for the phlogiston to saturate into, it can keep burning for millions of years!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Duh, because of fusion of course.

Protons in the sun's core fuse until they form oxygen and carbon and those burn on the surface.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

So it's all just a scam?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

The hilaries are making it

[-] [email protected] 10 points 5 hours ago

Because the sun is so full of hate that it literally cannot stop burning

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

Super Mario Bros. 3 proves this is true.

It's only desire is to engulf the Earth and kill every living thing on it. One day the sun, one day...

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I remember reading once that if the sun was made of entirely wood .. it would take about 5,000 years to burn out.... which is roughly the same timeline and age given by the Christian Bible.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 5 hours ago

It's burning with hatred for earth. It wants to consume it, but it will take time to gather enough strength...
Time in which frustratingly, its flaming hate transformed earth into a unique, living planet, and lead to the most vile and disgusting creation in the entire universe, My Little Pony.

The sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

The sun is a bad smell that creates disease?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

Yes, a disease called "life". Easily curable though.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Not quite as catchy as the original

[-] [email protected] 4 points 5 hours ago

And who is adding more wood to it? Ancient Egyptians?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

-.- they are dead. Read a book.

It's mormons now
