    This is true about any 2 objects with mass.

      No, it is not true in general that the barycenter lies outside both objects.

        I mean, sure, but you can reasonably glean that I’m just talking about the fact that any 2 objects with mass exert gravity on each other. The OP is facebook-tier

          I can’t reasonably glean that, because the OP clearly says this:

          It is so massive that both Jupiter & Sun orbit around a common point that lies outside the Sun known as the “barycenter”.

          I agree that OP is facebook-tier but your reply is reddit-tier :P

        It was outside the environment.
