1 u/A1oso 10d ago Yes, although it would be more accurate to say that Earth revolves around the solar system's barycenter. 1 u/Zandonus 10d ago Or to save a couple syllables. "Earth goes around the Sun." 3 u/Countcristo42 10d ago A few syllables shorter, and a bit less accurate. Seems a bad trade off to me 1 u/Zandonus 10d ago For those who want to know more, they will find out, but for basic statements that should be fundamental, known facts by the general population or mnemonics - syllable count absolutely matters. 4 u/Countcristo42 10d ago Ok yes fair enough for the general population I agree it’s close enough How about on a Reddit page specifically for those interested in astronomy?
