Description
I wanted to try something more destructive.
It shows a gas giant that got hit by something very very big, like planet sized thing, that must have move really fast and directly to impact that way it does. Otherwise it would have broke apart befor it even could touched the upper clouds layer.
Maybe it was the death star driving with, idk, a very high speed and the navigator just over looked the planet...
Edit: fixed the storm and the shading of the planet

SCIENCE MODE ACTIVATED! *Beep boop beep boop CA-CHUNK*
A high speed planetary impact wouldn't cause what looks like the gas giant is absorbing the planet, and the indenting we see wouldn't happen........Instead the impact of this mass and speed would be VERY energetic with massive heating causing the surrounding gas to heat up and expand very rapidly due to intense aerobreaking effects on a macroscopic scale, fallowed by the impacting planet being very quickly ripped appart both by impact stresses and gravitational effects [High speed does not prevent breakup, it just allows the breakup to happen during impact rather then in space, and the breakup would be a lot more explosive and energetic]

Ah interesting. I'm a fan of astrophysics but that dosn't always mean I understand it. xD
Thanks for telling me! ♥
That sounds really spectacular!

I can allways step in to help with physics reguarding stars, planets and moons :3
Sure thing
