This episode is a collection of cosmic queries asked by our Patreon patrons. Denny: I wonder why so many people believe the aliens will fly in a disk-shaped ship. Is there any physical advantage in building aircrafts in that shape? No. We've got this trope in our head, right? And once the seed gets planted, it's kind of hard to shake it.
What if the solar system had two suns? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice give a sneak peek into our patron-only Q&As with questions about the three body problem, galaxy formation, the alpha centauri system, and more.
