Carl Sagan's Cosmos: The Meat Planet (with pork volcano)

“A giant planet with a liquid interior full of liquid beef and pork, into which a thousand earths would fit.”

Darren Cullen of Spelling Mistakes Cost Lives and friend Mark Tolson edited together this ‘lost episode’ of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos, about a fabled Meat Planet, with details of its famous pork volcano, Mount Sustenance, “well-known to astronomers since the time of Galileo.”

If NASA would focus on the important planets, the delicious bacon-y ones like this, perhaps we’d have a real future in space exploration. Astronomy-gastronomy!
