ik, i was just simplifying

@LapisLazuli  

 
Technically, the highest amplitude of the Sun’s light is in the green portion of the visible spectrum…we just can’t see that because there’s also light coming in from the rest of the spectrum in a normal distribution around the green wavelengths.
 
Otherwise it’d appear green. xD

actually, it is white

It’s actually more white but good try Celestia.

Why no Weed tag?

@The_Spiral_Pony  
But MLP and Transformers are almost the same thing.  
Just like The Godfather or Elf starring Will Ferrell.

This is your princess, equestria. Dwell on that for a bit.

Uh-uh, I’m not falling for that one again.

Okay, I don’t mean to post twice unless it’s a conversation, and I’m not a brony that compares MLP to Transformers, but-
 
THAT’S A QUESTION YOU SHOULD ASK YOURSELF, MEGATRON.
 

@wselfwulf  
Oh, so it is. I own and have seen every G3 movie and short, and I still had to google that, it’s pretty obscure. xD

@Yet_One_More_Idiot  
its a line from g3

I just noticed…why is this tagged as G3?

@Techy Pony  
It probably could be, though it begs the question how.
 
Without an extra channel of communication you’d have to rely on ordinary methods of observation, and that’d make the task a lot harder due to lag time.
 
Oh. One thing we haven’t considered yet is that changing position of the sun could fling the planets nearby in different directions due to change of orbit. I suppose if it was performed ideally, the planet would travel forward in a sort of wiggly zig-zag line. Or possibly be ripped apart due to sudden change in gravitational pull.
 
@apegacine  
Party pooper.

In case you guys didn’t know this was a quote from G3 said by sunny daze in “A Charming Birthday”.

The sun’s not yellow, it’s chicken

@Draco_2k  
Why couldn’t space dilation be used to “communicate” (do magic) at a distance? (I’m of course just talking about principle, because I have zero idea how one would dilate space to move an object, let alone a “signal”)
 
In an isolated system of one star and one planet, I don’t think there’s be any measurable difference, but with multiple planets (and moons) there might be a difference. (But it’s really hard to think about)

@Techy Pony  
To be fair, understanding the relation of universal constant to structure of the universe in more detail wouldn’t help me imagine it any more accurately, it’d just make my head explode and spill out the cinnamon crunch cereal contained in my delicious insides.
 
Space dilation would solve the travel problem, certainly, but distant manipulation would still run into the lag problem. So there’d have to be some sort of omniscience there as well.
 
@Princess♠Molestia  
I looked at the night sky once.
 
@Techy Pony  
Yep.
 
Probably a more amusing example is that every gravitational force affecting the planets (that is, them going around the star at the creamy center) would also remain the same no matter how much delay there were.
 
Earth falls towards the sun with a lag time of about 8 minutes, and much more for the more distant planets. If speed of gravity slowed down to a snail’s pace, it would be no different than if it was instant.

No, I looked and the sun burned my eyes

@QuasarNova  
While I agree there is definitely a potential for a domino effect (though more obvious in nuclear fusion), I must say that example isn’t a good one. If it took longer for light to reach us from the sun, that wouldn’t effect the planet’s temp at all. For simplicity sake, let’s say the sun emits 1 million photons per second, 1 of which hits the earth each second. It doesn’t matter if that photon is going 3,000,000 m/s or 3, the earth will be get 1 photon per second, meaning the same amount of energy. That’s just me being a smart ass though xp

@Techy Pony
 
You reduce something that is present everywhere and the entire universe collapses. Slowering the speed of light means it takes longer for the sunlight to reach the planet, which in turn also means it affects it’s temperature and so forth producing a domino effect.

@Princess♠Molestia  
Given your name, “long and hard” and black, I can’t help but think you’re thinking of something else xD
