Episode 75: Stellar Snacks

Did you know that talking about astronomy can actually make you hungry? In this episode, Kiersten and Will take us on a culinary adventure through food themed astrobites. Instead of starting with the main course, Will takes us to Mars for dessert where we dine on a meteorite that initially got confused for a huge piece of chocolate. Then, Kiersten takes us to a stellar cooking class where we learn about the ingredients needed to make small exoplanets and its striking similarities to baking a cake.    Sonification & Visualization: Sounds of Exoplanet Systems: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idlB8JgKGU4   Astrobites: https://astrobites.org/2023/04/29/cacao-meteorite-and-other-fe-ni-meteorites-on-mars/ https://astrobites.org/2022/10/21/the-great-planet-bake-off/
