Sounds good to me, yo.

@redweasel  
how about Ap-opinions?

@furrypony
 
but she needs her pinions to fly

We need Apo-pinions!

Apo-Fact #11: SHE WENT TO FlooglinG JAIL

@Background Pony #FE53  
It’s a long-standing joke between aircraft and helicopter pilots/fans. Jet being named after jets would appreciate his daughter taking shots at heli ponies.

@Background Pony #FE53  
You must be a real hit with the ladies.

@Mister Cliff  
Such is the way of Master Shino. If it isn’t blisteringly hot, then it’s painfully adorable <3 .

“Helicopters are aeronoautical witchcraft”  
What an ignorant thing to say, considering they work EXACTLY THE SAME WAY as fixed-wing aircraft, i.e. they use airfoils.

FUUUUCK THIS IS CUTE

@Background Pony #3F09  
That would be her cutesy lil’ nose.

Define: snoot…

@Shinoo  
Sounds like little Apogee has a bright future ahead of her. And that’s an Apo-Fact.

@Furtive Tactics  
what if the universe isn’t what the princesses describe? 👀  
that’s what astronomer ponies try to find out

@Furtive Tactics  
In no way is it “really just like our universe.” The sun moves around the planet, not vice versa, and it seems as if the sun and moon are moved with equal effort, implying they’re roughly the same size. Equestria is a curious universe, fantasy rules and physics rules are heavily mixed together.

@BADASSassin  
Apparently just a moon and a star, given from what the show gives us.
 
Though, other stars do exist.
 
Which means it’s really just like our universe. Except where this planet is only being kept alive by two powerful, magical beings that move both the moon and the sun.

@Furtive Tactics  
“Exploring planets and other bodies” is what people really mean when they say “exploring space.” Of course no one is going to spend time and money looking at the black void. _{Unless you’re researching the properties of dark matter.} What do you even find if you exit Equestria’s atmosphere?

@BADASSassin
 
it’s the loop-dee-hoop

@HDPlayer  
I did say that the planets and other such things are worth exploring, yes.

@Furtive Tactics  
why would you explore the void though? that’s just a waste of time and resources
 
I mean we looked at a lot of things in space from a distance, so if you had the tech why would you not use it to explore those things
 
look at solar systems or other planets we found that seem interesting. look and study stars and other celstial bodies
 
space is mostly empty yes, but that doesn’t mean there is nothing to explore :p

@HDPlayer  
Not to mention exploring space is, quite literally, fruitless. You can explore what is in the void, the vacuum, but to explore the vacuum itself is endless and just desolate. I couldn’t imagine floating in space, not knowing my actual direction or orientation, and seeing nothing but endless darkness flooded with light. The planets are far more interesting than the depressing fascination of emptiness that is space itself.
 
I could only imagine how it would feel. I believe I would feel insignificant and pointless. And indeed, everyone is in the hypothetical eyes of the universe. However, to feel such an emptiness is… somehow liberating.

@BADASSassin  
maybe it’s exploring space, which is hard to find out since flying to space is expensive and stuff

I’m gonna throw out a comment in hopes of un-derailing the discussion a bit here. Has Shino ever stated what exactly Apogee’s special talent is? Her cutie mark is similar to Delta’s, and the “aeronautical witchcraft” thing implies a similar talent to Jet’s.

@Background Pony #1768  
It’s a meme made from a porn. Still, it’s kind of obvious when you see the meme being used.

@Meanlucario  
This is incorrect, but regardless, innuendos are Suggestive and comments that are entirely just an innuendo are generally not okay on a Safe image.
