  • While most of the planets we know of are spherical, can a whole planet be shaped by an American Football? We dive into the discoveries of such a planet and why scientists believe how a planet might be shaped this way.

      not exclusively... there are Kick-off, Punts, PAT Kicks, Dropkicks are allowed (as you are not allowed throw the ball forward after you passed the line of scrimmage etc... But the most used way to play the ball, is at you said, by hand (throw or carry the ball)

      @@WarpedCyan only in the USofA . The Majority of the rest of the world referes to it as their Language form of "Football". E.G. UK and other former Colonies using, if using english, the Term "Football" for the FIFA related game.Germany "Fußball", Frensch "football", spanish: fútbol; Portuguese: futebol; Russian Futbol (футбол), Chinese: 足 is Foot & 球 means Ball, 足球 ("Zúqiú") is there term for football, Netherlands: "voetbal"; Japan: this is mixed, through the US influence since WW2. They have フットボール (Futtobōru meaning Football) and サッカーボール (Sakkābōru meaning Soccer Ball); In polish you say "piłka nożna
      " with piłka = Ball and nożna
      = Foot - also the term piłkarstwo exists, also containing piłka; Welsh: pêl-droed - pêl = ball droed = Foot-
      Some go a related but also special way
      The Italians say calcio, wich just means to kick with your feet. And the hungarians say labdarúgas (labda =ball; rúgas = kick)
      Soccer is just an abbreviation for Association FOOTBALL. Even if the word Soccer originated in the UK, England especially, it is just common in the US. So, to insist, that the game is "Soccer" is more or less USAmerican Ignorance.

      In order to reach that shape it probably would have to be always pointed one side at the star. Kinda like the Moon is always same side to the Earth. So there isn't really a day and night or any seasons to speak off. From the surface of the planet the sun would always be in one place.

    There is not an (American) Football shaped planet, but only because the technical definition of a Planet requires the celestial body be spheroid based on its gravity. Football shaped objects as large as planets may exist and orbit stars in a similar fashion as planets do, but we'd have to revise our definitions to make them be considered planets.

    • @YagamiKou
      @YagamiKou Před 4 lety

      cause the sports associations consider football to be:
      "any game that involves kicking balls towards goals"
      football is a *type* of game, not a name of a game
      rugby/soccor are names, football is their category
      but as a country likes 1 game more, they use football to mean that 1 game more often
      eventually most countries call the game they like most football
      so its taken as part of a countries general lexicon
      but its just weird words and statistics

      ​@@YagamiKou Aaaaaannndddd..... there ones was Rugby Football and Association Football.. People abbreviated Rugby Football with Rugger and Association with Soccer to also have a short word for the kind of Football they playing. As it is very common during any time of the Rugby game to kick the egg shaped thing towards the enemies endzone and they consider that Egg a Ball too, they have considered Rugby as a form of football. Once both games were kind of popular in the USA. But they sucked at both, so they changed the game to a form it pleased them more. But as it was originated in those both (of so many more) kinds of Football, the name stuck.
      When you look around the world, there are so many different games under the Brand of "Football".. e.g. Welsh football, Australian Football to just name 2 of it.

      not true, in fact, all planets already are, because they are spinning and orbiting» which forces them to spread out in one axis and compress in the other axis against it's own gravity, just most are not that extreme, and in fact the is probably more like an egg or a rugby ball, I would guess an egg because the core would probably lead the rest of the mass

      Roughly, the heavier it is, the less often it appears in the universe. What we haven't discovered yet lies in the end of the elements table (and those things are heavy) and therefore it's very unlikely that there is a whole planet made of that stuff. Iron is the heaviest of materials that are still relatively common, so this is probably it.

    Hey Kyle, great video and channel!!
    A question, maybe a stupid one... do vibrating atoms technically produce sound? And if so, is there a temperature at wich humans can perceive the humming coming from an hot object, due to his atoms vibrating and producing sound waves?
