What If the Largest Objects in the Universe Collided?

In this episode, we're going to smash big things into each other. Why stop at smashing two gargantuan black holes, when you can do the same with the most massive stars, the largest planets, and even two galaxies? It's going to get explosive.

episode What If Theia Never Crashed into Earth? artwork

What If Theia Never Crashed into Earth?

Roughly 4.5 billion years ago, a Mars-sized protoplanet called Theia slammed into early Earth, an event believed to have formed the Moon and shaped life as we know it. But what if that impact never occurred?

episode What If You Jumped Into Saturn? artwork

What If You Jumped Into Saturn?

Saturn is famous for its magnificent rings. But did you know other gas planets like Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune also have rings? Saturn's are just the largest and most visible. Saturn radiates twice as much energy into space than it receives from the Sun. And that means it must have an internal heat source. Do we know what it is? Absolutely not.

Mating with an Alien

It's a beautiful night. Just you, a bottle of wine, and your partner drifting through the cosmos in a UFO. As you caress their green skin, you know tonight's the night you're mating with an alien.
