"You have the energy of the moon at night," Jackson Lee tried explaining to attendees, seeming to misunderstand that the moon doesn't release energy at night, it is merely reflecting light from the sun.
"And sometimes you've heard the word 'full moon,'" she continued. "Sometimes you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon," which the graduate of Yale explained is a "complete rounded circle which is made up mostly of gases."
Makes you question law school admittance policy.

Whenever someone asks why I have no respect for the ivy leagues or lawyers, SJL is my go to argument.

Or you gotta stay inside of the sun spots! But bring a jacket because they're really cold!

Calling her a stupid count is an insult to all the other stupid counts out there.

Boy would I. Then I’d wash it down with a cold Budweiser.

She needs to be quiet about anything concerning space.
During the first mars rover mission she was in control room and asked if they could get a shot of the American flag planted.
How did she go to Yale?

What if it was made of spareribs? Would you eat one?

No kidding. I guess she was the token Affirmative Action person in her class.

She needs to watch the moon documentary from 1902. Clearly shows white men travelling to moon and returning with a lunar inhabitant, who they enslaved.

I has to be an honorary degree!! That's the only explanation. Or Yale needs to explain a few things.

Kamala giving history lessons on women’s basketball brackets and Sheila Jackson Lee giving us science lessons. The Dems are the party of knowledge

On this topic here is something interesting.
Saturn and Jupiter are considered the gas planets. They are mostly made up of hydrogen and helium (there are other constituents and one of them is methane which is a very interesting observation for another discussion). Both have a very strong magnetosphere. Here is an illustration of Saturn magnetosphere from NASA:
But with no metal core how does Saturn and Jupiter have a strong magnetic field?
About a 800 miles below these planets outer layers there is enough pressure such that the hydrogen is liquified and takes on the properties of a metal and thus produces a magnetosphere.
Explained more here: LINK
On a side note Earth's magnetosphere is due to our iron (metal) core. The magnetosphere protects earth from the sun's electromagnetic radiation which allows heavier atmospheric gases to form our atmosphere (Nitrogen, Oxygen, Water, Carbon Dioxide, Argon, etc.). Without our strong magnetosphere we would have atmospheres similar to Venus or Mars...mostly CO2 because CO2 is the heaviest atmospheric constituent. Our magnetosphere is not strong enough to protect hydrogen and helium from getting stripped away from the earth. Once hydrogen and helium are let into the atmosphere they are lost into space forever.
Just mentioning this because our magnetosphere rarely gets any love and its vital to life on earth.
