I think he meant how many times the force of earths gravity would be felt if you were in the same place as the probe. Sadly the answer is easy its 0 due to its speed. But if stationary it would be millions more than earth but you would fall right through as there isnt a solid surface to stand on
Water by definition is not wet. Wetness is a scientific definition, the degree at which a liquid state of matter adheres to a solid state of matter. Water being the liquid has no implicit wetness, but in contact with certain solids may display a certain degree of wetness.

What a telling and depressing triptych of questions - "Does the sun have a gravitational pull?", "What's the point?" and "How much did it cost?" We're in such trouble.
"How much does this cost?" Why is this always asked with the greatest tsk tsk of tones whenever space science does something amazing? Far better this than some more missiles.

How much did the probe cost? What a silly question. The scientific illiteracy of the average journalist has been a problem for decades and it isn't getting any better even when the world is getting more and more complicated. But journalists still spend their time learning politics and law thinking that's all they need.

Technically, there is no gravitational "pull" from the Sun, or anything for that matter. Gravity is the curvature of spacetime caused by all objects with mass. This curvature makes objects come together, hence why light, which has no mass can be affected by gravity. I'm guessing this isn't what the presenter meant though when he asked his really insightful question.
And objects don't have weight, they have mass. They are not solid, atoms make up everything. You are correct, but you're being pedantic. This is an interview aimed at the layman like me
@@neilgodwin6531 fair point but I'm not trying to educate, I'm merely aiming a joke at the presenter. A joke that could be interpreted by and hopefulll add a little cheer to, somebody who knows a little about general relativity, which you clearly do, you're not a layman.
The question "Is there a gravitational pull to the sun" should get this "presenter" immediately sacked. No wonder the world is struggling when we accept the most ignorant ppl broadcasting stupidity to the world. He will be questioning how to grow concrete next like the other dullard you employ?

😂 quite certain that he answered that question earlier but guess Iain was thinking of his Xmas dinner so missed it

sometimes host ask questions he already know in order to educate the audience just in case the audience might not know or are interested in it

I think Prof. McCaughrean did well to keep a straight face and not roll his eyes when asked whether the sun has a gravitational pull.
Hi I’m a really thick journalist and have a question
Is there a gravitational pull from the sun. Ffs
OMG.
Should just have gone at night time, would have been much easier.
😂😅

Did a journalist seriously just have to ask if the sun has a gravitational pull?
Off course it's to educate us? Isn't it we are the sheeple are not

The Andromeda Galaxy is hurtling towards us at 68 miles a second. I want to know what Keir Starmer is going to do about it??
Brexit was the solution bojo is a visionary
Did he just ask if the sun has gravity 🤣🤣🤣
That's nothing. The speed camera clocked me at 500k mph and it was just a 30 zone :)
Flat Earthers are apoplectic with rage 😂
They'll have some conspiracy to explain how it's not happening.
Why would it bother flat earthers,don’t they specialise in the earth and not the sun,surely they would be called flat sunners if this was the case.

I am sure he asks dumb questions on behalf of the viewers and that worries me more than another Carrington event.
I'm with you on that. I didn't need his question but then again I was educated in the 60's and 70's.
It's weird that they never ask the same level of questions when talking about sports or politics. "So you play with a round ball? Is that true?"
I hope they soon have the first man to walk on the Sun
I believe stazi has his name down. Not sure if he volunteered or some country put him forward.
@@Penfold-8521 A brave person. A hero perhaps!
I can’t believe he asked if there was a gravitational pull from the sun. My son knew that aged 7.
“Is there a gravitational pull from the Sun?”
I’m never going to allow Iain Dale to think he has a superior intellect when listening to him again 😂
Its all to do with the gravitational pull to speed up even i know that and i have no qualifications
I remember as a boy hearing and reading about probes using the 'slingshot effect' around Venus or Jupiter.
That was over half a century ago.
Send Starmer up in the next one!
Found the Tory/deform “fluffer” /
Ian Dale probably thinks they go close to the sun at night when is cooler 😂
