Look,
@neiltyson, when a planet reaches a certain age - 4 billion years or so - these things happen. Let's not make it feel self-conscious. -
@Wrschgn@neiltyson If I were only as oblate (i.e. very slightly) as the Earth, I'd be very happy.

@neiltyson because gravity pulls mass south, right? -
@_mattio Not sure if joking or just bad at physics. -
@bmkmedia if i'm joking or if you're bad at physics? -
@_mattio Gravity pulls things towards the centre of mass, in this case to the center of the earth, not “south."pic.twitter.com/qHLrqHrl8e
