| noname2200 said: It's been far, far too long since I took a physics or chemistry class, but I'm pretty sure a teraton is a unit of energy, not mass. A quick google search is bringing up results for how big an explosion you could get from a teraton, so it looks like I'm not wrong. And while I know that mass and energy can be interrelated, I don't think we usually measure mass with teratons. I'm also too lazy to sit down and calculate how much 5.1 trillion teratons translates into kilos. |
They are convertible, but the in-game number is ridiculous physically. For starters a planet that large would've been a gas giant, not a rocky planet. He is talking about something three times the mass of Jupiter.
I am just going to say it is more likely that it was a typo on the developer's part and they meant a billion teratons. Which puts them at half them mass of earth and slightly smaller.
