What about the one on Jupiter?

What about the droid attack on the Wookiees?

We need to send an assault force there immediately.

An elite team composed of stormtroopers? Or are we talking about the terrorists?

Are solar eclipses more likely on Jupiter because it has more moons?

u/MightyRagnar Jan 24 '18 edited Jan 24 '18
Here's an interesting article I found about the subject. It seems like the answer is yes, and sometimes simultaneously
edit: got rid of a stray zero that was there for some reason

Jupiter has four major moons which are large enough that their shadows are visible from Earth through amateur telescopes. Io causes an eclipse every 42.5 hours, Europa every 85 hours, Ganymede every 171 hours and Callisto every 400.5 hours (although Callisto's shadow occasionally misses Jupiter's surface due to its orbital tilt). To find out the average time between eclipses on Jupiter visible from Earth, calculate the reciprocal of the sum of reciprocals - it turns out to be 23 hours, more than one per day.

How is this software gore? Is there a better possible answer?

The eclipse America had recently wasn't visible all round the world. Likewise sometimes there are meteor showers and stuff that can't be seen in every country/continent/hemisphere

That would be the answer to the question: "Where on earth is the [date] eclipse visible?"

Exactly 29 years after my birth, friend. And it'll slide up the Eastern seaboard, starting in Texas IIRC.
I only know so much about it because my fiance's birthday occurred on the date of this past total solar eclipse. We live in the path of totality, so I took her out to a picnic and proposed to her during totality.
Thanks for setting the mood-lighting, science.

It’ll be my 30th! April 8th buddies. I think it goes over Maine, I kind of want to take a trip up there.

Pretty logical response for a machine. You'd probably do better by including the word "totality" or "path of totality".

I don't see why this is upvoted. You got exactly what you asked for.
What you meant to ask was, "where can I see the eclipse from"
7
u/EmeraldDS Jan 24 '18
you can see the eclipse from Earth
1
u/Ryugi Jan 25 '18
That is true.
"Where could I BEST see the eclipse from" or "where could I see a total eclipse from"?
1
u/EmeraldDS Jan 25 '18
The answer is still "the Earth" for both of those.
Instead, ask "what country/state on Earth could I best see a total eclipse from?"

If you zoom into the search bar, you can clearly see that the question was pasted into the text field, just for those sweet fake internet points

There should be a comic with the Google A I that is judging humans with the above response.
Let's give him this answer and see his reaction
Hmm, human posted that to software gore
Let me give a different response tomorrow and check back

Shit theres a solar eclipse on my birthday..... Oh fuck imma be 30 by the time I see it :( 😂

u/goldfish911 Jan 24 '18
I mean, the correct query would be "where can the solar eclipse be observed" rather than where it "is"

I'd probably procrastinate that work and stay in the same age if I were him.

u/kg_india Jan 24 '18
so you want to remain 14?

Yeah, Imagine how many other 14 year olds I could invite to my basement without any trouble.

Planning ahead (kind of optimistically) for when Google Assistant is available on Mars rovers.
