About this episode

This episode explores the beauty and chaos of planetary systems born from orbital resonances.

Most planetary systems are born in beautiful orbital resonances, these elegant gravitational rhythms where planets lock into precise integer ratios. But when those resonances break, the resulting chaos might either destroy world... or deliver the ingredients for life! Please let me know if there are any topics you would like to break down or conversations you want to hear! Note: This music is not mine, you can find it on Youtube and other platforms.
