Episode Synopsis

Ever wondered how much the Earth "weighs"? Prepare to have your mind blown (and your scientific vocabulary expanded!). In this episode, we dive deep into the mind boggling mass of our planet, what a "ronnagram" even is, and how brilliant scientists like Henry Cavendish figured it all out without a giant scale. Plus, we tackle the burning question: are humans making the Earth heavier? The answer might surprise you! Tune in to discover the cosmic dance of mass gain and loss that keeps our dynamic planet in perpetual, subtle transformation.A production of the Wayward Things Network
