Episode description

Dan and Alice pick up where we left off last time. We discuss vast distances and sizes both on our fair planet and in the universe, like Betlegeuse–a star with a name harder to spell than its size is to comprehend–as well as the length of time that the universe has existed.

Content warning: general discussion of the immense scale of our micro/macroverse could be upsetting for some listeners
