Episode notes
Hexagons can be responsible for spiral arms and galaxies. You can't measure their motion in a galaxy because the periods of rotation periods in a galaxy are like 200 million years. But we found the smaller version of them, the Saturn-Lim equivalent in Saturn rings. So it really was so thrilling to find something that really exists on a galactic scale and we found evidence of it in Saturn Rings.
