In-Betweeni 088: King Tut’s Meteorite Dagger + Yet Another Truly Hellish Exoplanet

Today is all about extremes and being extra. The first Etsy store fell from the sky and there’s a planet 850 light years from Earth that needs to chill. Update! Move over Wasp-121b. 55 Cancri e is in waaay more of a hurry. This exoplanet takes a mere 18 hours to orbit its star, beating out ol' Waspy. The shortest confirmed orbital period is 10.9 hours, which belongs to Kepler-42c. Congrats to them all. --- Love the show and wanna show some love?

Om Podcasten

Welcome to Well… That’s Interesting, a comedy sciencey podcast for weird people who like learning about weird sh*t, like can hair grow between your teeth or could we ever lose our moon? (Sadly, yes to both.) WTI tells the story behind the facts and, turns out, those stories are funny. Join Jill ChaCha every week as they take The Flock on a journalistic, storytelling adventure into new, bizarre, often unexpected findings. The tales are epic and the laughter is plentiful. -- WTI is a part of the Airwave Media podcast network! Visit AirwaveMedia.com to listen and subscribe to other incredible shows.
