BREAKING: UW-L’s Mrs. Photon breaks news on the Kentucky Meat Shower of 1876

View descriptionShare
 

UW-La Crosse Outreach Coordinator Spencer Wilken — or Mrs. Photon — in studio to talk science, including things that cannot be explained, like meat raining from the sky, how Tylenol works, why curling (the sport) stones curl and where all Earth’s water came from. The meat shower comes from a phenomenon that happened March 3, 1876, where it literally rained meat and nobody knows why. Science also can't explain how Tylenol works, or why those stones you throw down the ice curve in that matter. We also discussed the melting of the Doomsday Glacier, or Thwaite’s Glacier — named after a UW geologist — climate change in general, and the discovery of a 350-pound, Shaq-sized penguin.
