So you're telling me OP has been shooting at Jupiter for 2 years and all it's done is make it bigger? Damn, how hard is it to kill these space orbs?

Shooting it one more time should reset it back to its original size if GTA is to be believed.

I was standing in the park and was wondering why the frisbee was getting bigger and bigger… and then it hit me. Let’s hope Jupiter doesn’t come this close..

The trick is to disrupt its orbit with something that has nearly as much mass, so far scientists have been unable to figure out how to get OPs mom into space though

Humans have been shooting at the Earth for centuries, but I fear our technology will only advance enough to kill 90% of life on the planet rather than the ball itself. We have no chance against a gas giant

You just need enough explosives set in a straight line around earth and, dont detonate them all at once, but, detonate them such that the shockwave is additive with every subsequent explosive, you'll crack the earth in two

And watch it almost immediately merge back together.

Or, well, not actually watch it. I guess you will have larger problems to think about.

That would be a terrifying thing to see from orbit. My guess is that it would look pretty cool if you could get over the existential crisis that it probably just caused you.

The problem is that with enough energy, you’re eventually dealing with liquid and not solid Earth.

That’s the thing you’re shooting at earth you’re supposed to be shooting into space using earths own mass that’s how you kill a ball
