Jupiter Pizza : Space Places In Earth Places

from Science, Actually Presents : The Nerd and the Scientist

Kovi and Benjamin got together for slice at Jupiter Pizza. They loved the menu - some wood fired pizza options were the Cassiopeia, the Io, Galileo, Gaia, Mercury, Ares, and Triton. As fun as those names are, they pissed off Benjamin something royal. You see, the names are all spacey, yes, but pick a theme! We've got some planets (Ares was the Greek name fo the planet we now call Mars), random moons (from different worlds, mind you), an explorer, a constellation... It's all over the place! The eatery is called Jupiter Pizza - you'd think they'd have, at the very least, four pies named after the Galilean moons Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. Nope! They didn't even refer to pepperoni as 'great red spots' - and that's just off the top of the head! Anywho, this episode was thought up in a pizzeria called Jupiter - so let's talk about places here on Earth named after places in space!Follow us everywhere!Find Benjamin at Science, Actually : https://www.scienceactually.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/actuallyscienceFind Kovi at Fun Fact Science : https://www.funfactscience.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/funfactscience
