1. The satellite will burn during the reentry because it was not designed to ever come back to Earth
2. Even if it survives the heat, the line will snap because it's shit and satellites weigh a lot
3. Even if that line is made of mithril, Earth's gravity will pull the satellite down and flip the ship, making it spiral out of control and crash, because the line is conntected too high
4. Even if by some miracle he lands safely, a grounded satellite is worthless and it's better to make a new one than to launch one which went through so much crap
5. But even if still holds any value, it's a top secret satellite, so glowies will make him disappear forever
Did I get it?
I notice I'm confused, why would the satellite burn up on reentry? He could just slow down so there's less friction. How does he think we get back rocket fairings?
>carabiner clip is fine >no markings on the satellite to indicate it can't be held for ransom >basic newtonian physics compliant (no force counteracting the engines)
I can't tell what the problem is. Are the engines supposed to be spooling up so that when he turns them on he blasts the sat?
Given that they're using magic space cars, yes he could do that.
the satellite would burn up in re-entry, supposedly

Damn you're right that's the answer.
Can't imagine what kid is supposed to think of that especially when they're in jetson rocket cars that would also melt.

>when they're in jetson rocket cars that would also melt
I think it's safe to assume the rocket cars are designed for reentry while satellites are designed to stay in orbit.
They both have Jetsons-style personal spaceships so I don't think it's farfetched to think that they have something that protects the satellite from burning up on re-entry.
Taking that line of thought further, if they can easily procure such space travel vehicles, then bringing up a new satellite wouldn't be so expensive that they should even consider the ransom.
but yeah the real answer is probably the re-entry heat.
>Count Weirdly is in space.
Oh sure, THAT's why you posted this one. Not because of the lady kangaroo with the bedroom eyes. I'm wise to your shenanigans, Cinemaphile.
Yes actually, but the pouch is a lot closer to the ground so op is still a kangaroo. Also fun fact: some species of wallabies can get pregnant WHILE they’re pregnant

The NRO and Space Force will notice the satellite's orbit has started to degrade, and will immediately call the Air Force to grab an ASAT weapon and blow up Count Weirdy and the satellite before they can reenter the atmosphere. The public will be told the satellite had a maneuvering thruster or reaction wheel failure and that there was a risk of a hypergolic fuel leak if the satellite hit land.
For the Earth's in sun problem aren't all answers correct except fo the last one. Trivially if you can fit 50000 earths in the sun you can also fit only 75 into it.
The optimal packing density of spheres is Pi/(3 * sqrt(2)) according to the Kepler conjecture. The ratio of sun volume to earth volume is about 1300000.
Pi/(3 * sqrt(2)) * 1300000 < 1000000 so a million earths don't fit.
Can someone please explain the kangaroo one to me? The only difference I can see is that half of them have their tongue sticking out and the other half do not.
Bob Weber Jr. himself says there are no other differences, and also says that he may start adding the differences along with the answers
he also said in another comment that the answer is supposed to be E, but they mistyped it as D
If you study the images closely closely you will see that images 2 and 4 are misaligned a little bit on the x axis
also wtf they added lines to the captcha??? and an extra character threw me off a little

I really want to know if either Bob Weber Jr. or the new artist (who I quite like but I can't read his signature) live in Tucson. He does a lot of really specific Sonoran Desert stuff.
It would be fun, because I could add them to the list of comic people who live in Southern Arizona.
So far the list is the Super Mega guy and the guy who did those Scott Pilgrim porn parodies but then got hired as the colorist for the Scott Pilgrim books.
Well, if so, I hope they're enjoying the monsoon weather. It's been a nice reprieve. All the tarantulas are out and about now. My favorite time of year in Southern Arizona.
Damn you're right that's the answer.

HERE'S THE DEFINITIVE KANGAROO PUZZLE ANSWER
1 and 2: baby's tongue
1 and 3: bird's beak
1 and 4: tongue
2 and 3: beak, tongue
2 and 4: EXACTLY ALIKE
3 and 4: beak, tongue
The obvious answer is that nobody else was in the room to steal it. But it has to be something more specific.
Also, is she wearing a special kangaroo smock with a tail hole?
1. She's a woman
2. Women are crafty and not to be trusted
3. slylock can simply check her weight again after the visit to see if she weighs more with the bookend (this is not 100% reliable since she might have menstruated that much weight out)
There are so many thigns which will go wrong once he tows that thing into the atmosphere I don't even know where to begin.
Try anyway.
1. The satellite will burn during the reentry because it was not designed to ever come back to Earth
2. Even if it survives the heat, the line will snap because it's shit and satellites weigh a lot
3. Even if that line is made of mithril, Earth's gravity will pull the satellite down and flip the ship, making it spiral out of control and crash, because the line is conntected too high
4. Even if by some miracle he lands safely, a grounded satellite is worthless and it's better to make a new one than to launch one which went through so much crap
5. But even if still holds any value, it's a top secret satellite, so glowies will make him disappear forever
Did I get it?
yea
You got it a little too well in all honesty.
don't forget: How is a space ship going to turn around in space?
I notice I'm confused, why would the satellite burn up on reentry? He could just slow down so there's less friction. How does he think we get back rocket fairings?

Looked up the answer. Pretty stupid one today.
>Count Weirdly is in space.
Oh sure, THAT's why you posted this one. Not because of the lady kangaroo with the bedroom eyes. I'm wise to your shenanigans, Cinemaphile.
The thread would have been deleted immediately if I had mentioned it. hehe
Hmm... good point.
I mean... "Mentioned what?"
That's obviously a wallaby. Toally different.
do wallabys have pouchs? with childs in them?
Yes actually, but the pouch is a lot closer to the ground so op is still a kangaroo. Also fun fact: some species of wallabies can get pregnant WHILE they’re pregnant

wtf

Based.

Hello new fetish
I found all 6 differences! Should I say?
Do people realize you can instantly see any differences between images by using the cross-eyed technique?
Most people don't know how to cross their eyes, and those who do usually don't recognize that you can do that to cheat at these.
>can cross eye vertically
OK mutie
Black person, just turn the fricking image sideways.
tilt you're head
I dont believe in witchcraft!
shame. voodoo is pretty cool once you realize the control you get over others.
6 Differences
volcano smoke plume goes off panel
a leaf is torn in left side bush
mama stego is missing tail spikes
unhatched egg is missing a spot
a smaller palm tree is missing
the lava flow from the volcano is longer
Grav pull would turn it into an unstoppable iron rod wmd, then it's not ransom anymore but the plot of Megaman X5
Count Weirdly is Russian. Everything Russians do will fail because of bad planning.
The exhaust from the ship will frick up the satellite
The NRO and Space Force will notice the satellite's orbit has started to degrade, and will immediately call the Air Force to grab an ASAT weapon and blow up Count Weirdy and the satellite before they can reenter the atmosphere. The public will be told the satellite had a maneuvering thruster or reaction wheel failure and that there was a risk of a hypergolic fuel leak if the satellite hit land.
The real mystery here is how Slylock can pay himself a spaceship modeled after himself on the pay of a criminal consultant.
or why it doesn't have a cape
Ami blind i cant see differences.
they're subtle
that kangaroo can get it
She's got some real "frick me" eyes!
>slylock is canadian

>kangaroo
knew she would be hot af
The question is, why did Slylock waste government money to launch himself into space to watch Weirdly if he knew Weirdly was going to fail?
He didn't know till he got there
Can someone please explain the kangaroo one to me? The only difference I can see is that half of them have their tongue sticking out and the other half do not.
Perhaps OP did a little jape

OH, it's the length of the bird's beak
Surprisingly subtle for this kind of kiddie puzzle.
thread needs more Cassandra Cat.
I agree, but these threads get extremely heavily babysat by the jannies, so anything you might post with her has a high chance of being deleted.

https://www.slylockfox.com/about/ mentions them working out of a "Southwest studio", so it's possible.
Well, if so, I hope they're enjoying the monsoon weather. It's been a nice reprieve. All the tarantulas are out and about now. My favorite time of year in Southern Arizona.
What no more slylock puzzles? You can do better than this OP.
here's a puzzle uuuu

At least other kangaroos get to wear clothing.
The obvious answer is that nobody else was in the room to steal it. But it has to be something more specific.
Also, is she wearing a special kangaroo smock with a tail hole?
Oh frick, did she sneak the bookend into her pouch through the tailhole
There are 3 items in the room that could provide clues, and re-reading what happened *before* the theft should help, as well.
smocks are usually backless, so it doesn't need a tail hole, it's already open back there
1. She's a woman
2. Women are crafty and not to be trusted
3. slylock can simply check her weight again after the visit to see if she weighs more with the bookend (this is not 100% reliable since she might have menstruated that much weight out)
