Astrobiology Rap Proves That Science Is Fun, Nothing Really Rhymes with Abiogenesis

If the fantasticLarge Hadron Collider rapwas too esoteric for your gustatory sensation , Oort Kuiper ’s Astrobiology rap , commissioned by a European astronomy magazine , probably wo n’t find its way onto your prestigious and exclusive “ muzic 4 drivin ’ ‘ n ’ shit ” playlist . But , in the spirit of skill , consider the facts : The birdsong has a beatnik , therefore it can technically be nodded , hobbled or even danced to . The rapper ’s name is a combination of not one , but two different astronomical phenomenon , and Frank Drake ( you have it off , like the equation ) look to be Kuiper ’s Suge Knight . Last but not least , in the middle of a fairly compelling and entertaining account of the history of manned space travel , listeners are treated to a voiceover by Carl goddamn Sagan , a man who pall well before he could ever recognise his potential in the music industry . Oort Kuiper ’s biggest doubt might be “ where did life come from ? ” but after listening to this song , a more important question is “ when will Oort Kuiper make another birdcall ? ” [ AMEEviaSlashdot ]
