>Moon plus sun is a wildly more massive, nuclear furnace of a moon that also engulfs the earth.
i just looked up mass of sun vs mass of moon (they differ by 10^30 vs 10^20), and the elemental composition of the sun: the moon would entirely disappear into the insignificant digits of trace elements which are in the range of .01 % of the sun. I could be off by orders of magnitude all over the place and it would still disappear.
This thread reminds me of Scribblenauts, the game where you conjure objects to solve puzzles by describing them. I suspect it was an inspiration for Baba Is You.
Scribblenauts was also an early precursor to modern GenAI/word embeddings. I constantly bring it up in discussions of the history of AI for this reason.
Not sure about that. You can't have an eclipse without both the moon and the sun. Ergo, the eclipse is the totality (sorry!) of the sun and moon, or sun+moon (+very specific boundary conditions).
Moon implies there is a planet the moon is orbiting. So unless the planet and its moon are too close to the sun the long term result could also be: solar system.
That’s sun minus moon. Moon plus sun is a wildly more massive, nuclear furnace of a moon that also engulfs the earth.
Reminds me of this AI word combination game recently shared on HN, with almost exactly these mechanics:

For the record, Sun+Moon is indeed eclipse.

Wait so moon plus sun != sun plus moon? :Thinking:
celestial objects don't need to obey algebraic commutativity!
I wonder if SCP-1313 does

Could you explain? :3

Still think it was a good response :)
Here i was, like an idiot, thinking it was moon light
Or potentially a sun that lasts slightly longer?
but then eclipse + moon = sun, which doesn't make much sense either :/
Not obvious. Astronomers are actively looking for signatures of exomoons around exoplanets. So "sun plus moon" could mean that too.
The OP said moon + sun, rather than sun + moon. We have no idea yet if celestial math is non-communicative.
*commutative
Well, that too.
Well you find the signature by looking for a dip in but sun's luminosity. So minus might be the better relationship here
The set of celestial objects visible to the naked eye during the day.
Moon plus sun would be sun because the sun would be an absorbing element.
Moon implies there is a planet the moon is orbiting. So unless the planet and its moon are too close to the sun the long term result could also be: solar system.
This goes to show how that plus operation is awfully defined.
That's operator overloading for you.
