Sorry for interrupting your war against biology, but here's an actual science question.

What happens when a sun made of ice and a sun made of lava collide?

Assume the sun made of ice is as big as the sun made of lava is hot and both travel at the speed of light.

>speed of light

what is this i dont even.

3/10 because /sci/ is so easy to troll.

Well it would be quite difficult for a volume, (or mass, depending on how we want to define a "sun") of water to all be solid ice, considering insane pressures and gravity and so on.
And if, "sun made of lava" means to imply a star much like the one our planet orbits (rather than a similarly ambiguous body of molten rock)

Then I don't fucking know what happens. Shit man, these terminologies are some fuckweiners.

I'm guessing they're traveling in pocket space which allows them to exists as lava/ice. But even with that the impact force would only be that of the relativistic speed between the 2 suns, not light speed. If this is not the case, then the other option wouldn't be possible as going speed of light in normal space would completely disintegrate those two planetary bodies into light.

>> No.5339508

a twice as massive sun made of water.

>> No.5339539

What would happen if they were just orbiting each other?
Would there be steam planets in between?

>> No.5339638

>>5339539

Probably. But it would depend on the escape velocity, aswell.

Could a star made of ice have habitable planets orbiting it?

Water has a higher heat capacity than lava, so you'd either still have ice coated with solid orck or you'd have cool water and rock.

>> No.5339694

Yes, but the habitable zone is located in the end of the solar system.

>> No.5340875

The sun made of ice has way more hydrogen, so it would win.

I'll admit I smirked at this part.
