A multi-panel meme featuring edited screenshots from the Star Wars franchise. The panels depict a humorous interaction between Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa inside a spaceship. Luke complains about being cold, Leia dismissively notes that space is cold, and Luke reacts with frustration, questioning why the billion-dollar ship lacks proper heating and threatening to 'choke the shit out of' Leia for her comment. The humor stems from relatable frustration with discomfort in an environment that should logically be comfortable, subverting the high-tech sci-fi setting with everyday annoyance.

A meme featuring a bell curve labeled with IQ scores (ranging from 55 to 145) and corresponding percentiles (0.1%, 2%, 14%, 68%, 14%, 2%, 0.1%). Three cartoon characters are positioned at different points on the curve: a simple-drawn figure at the far left (low IQ, 0.1%), a crying Wojak-like character at the top center (average IQ, 68%), and a serious hooded figure at the far right (high IQ, 0.1%). Each character is accompanied by the text 'Rockets are cool as fuck,' humorously implying universal agreement on the appeal of rockets regardless of IQ level. The bottom left corner contains an 'imgflip.com' watermark.

The image features a vast ocean under a cloudy sky as the background. At the top center, there is a red-circled graphic containing numerous small white specks, likely intended to represent atoms. Below this graphic, bold uppercase text reads: 'A SINGLE WATER MOLECULE CONTAINS MORE HYDROGEN ATOMS THAN THERE ARE STARS IN THE ENTIRE SOLAR SYSTEM.' The visual juxtaposes the ocean (symbolizing water) with the atomic graphic to emphasize the claim, though the statement is factually incorrect (a water molecule has 2 hydrogen atoms; the Solar System has approximately 1 star).

A screenshot of two tweets from X.com. The first tweet, posted by WeRateDogs (@dog_rates) on 4/6/20, features a photo of a brown bulldog named Nellie walking on grass with a large, transparent bubble surrounding her head, humorously framed as an 'astronaut' on a 'spacewalk.' The caption reads: 'This is Nellie. She's an astronaut. Please don't interrupt her spacewalk. 13/10' (a signature WeRateDogs over-10 rating). Below this, a reply tweet from NASA (@NASA) on the same date references Neil Armstrong's famous moon landing quote, adapting it to: 'That's one small boop for the pup; one giant boop for pupkind.' accompanied by a paw print and rocket emoji. The tweets have engagement metrics: 682 comments, 32K retweets, and 261K likes for WeRateDogs' post, and 148 comments, 4.4K retweets, and 65K likes for NASA's reply.

The image features NASA astronaut Anne C. McClain in a spacesuit with the American flag in the background. A circular inset shows another woman, later identified as her ex-wife Summer Worden. The text overlay states that Worden admitted fabricating claims of being the victim of the 'first crime committed in space,' referring to an incident where she accused McClain of accessing her bank account from the International Space Station. The original 9Gag title humorously references the retraction by joking that 'crime rate in space isn't 100% lesbian women anymore,' alluding to the same-sex relationship context of the dispute.

A photograph of astronaut Zena Cardman wearing a white spacesuit with an American flag patch on the right shoulder and the name 'Z. Cardman' printed on the chest. She stands with her arms crossed inside what appears to be the interior of a spacecraft, with metallic seats and equipment visible in the background. The image is accompanied by a speculative comment from 9Gag suggesting Crew-11 is returning early due to a 'medical condition,' with the claim that Cardman is pregnant.

Crew-11 is coming back early because `medical condition`. Okay, I'm calling it now: Zena Cardman is pregnant.

A four-frame meme depicting a shirtless man on a wooden dock reacting to the news that Saturn's moon Titan has more oil reserves than Earth. The sequence shows: 1) the man walking towards the water's edge, 2) jumping off the dock, 3) mid-air with legs kicking, and 4) creating a large, explosive splash upon entering the water. The repeated text overlay reads: '*Saturn's Moon, Titan found to have more Oil Reserve than found on Earth* America:' implying a humorous, exaggerated eagerness by America to access the oil reserves.

A two-panel meme illustrating anthropomorphic celestial bodies. Top panel: A flaming meteor approaches Earth, saying 'Hi, can I buy you a drink?' Earth responds 'Sure!' with an open demeanor. Bottom panel: The Moon positions itself in front of Earth, intercepting the meteor and stating 'She's not interested,' portraying a loyal, protective role. The humor stems from personifying the Moon as Earth's defender against the meteor's playful advances, creating a wholesome narrative about friendship in space.

A classic Philosoraptor meme featuring a green velociraptor with a thoughtful expression, characterized by its detailed, textured skin and contemplative pose. The meme displays two lines of bold white text: the top line reads 'IF EARTH IS THE 3RD PLANET FROM THE SUN' and the bottom line asks 'DOES THAT MAKE EVERY COUNTRY A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY?'. The humor stems from a pun on the term '3rd world country,' which originally referred to nations not aligned with NATO or the Communist bloc during the Cold War, reinterpreting it literally by linking Earth's position as the 3rd planet to the numerical '3rd' in '3rd world.'
