Conversely, a football inflated on Venus to 13 pounds per square inch (@NFL regulation), when brought to Earth, would instantly explode. https://t.co/kXq2V5umXL — PolitiTweet.org

If you were to play football on planet Venus, then all 22 players would rapidly vaporize in the high-temperature atmosphere, 50% hotter than a Pizza Oven. Ignoring that complication, an Earth-inflated football would instantly flatten from the atmospheric pressure — 100x Earth’s. https://t.co/77at28Ctws — PolitiTweet.org

Not that anybody asked, but the Raymond James Stadium, home to #SuperBowl LV, is oriented precisely north-south in the Northern Hemisphere. This means the Coriolis Force from Earth’s rotation will deflect any 50-yard kick, nearly 1/2 inch to the right. I’m just sayin’. — PolitiTweet.org
