10 Ways To BBQ On An Alien World

10 Ways to BBQ on an Alien World

There are over 3,700 planets in our galaxy. Many of them orbit stars outside our solar system, these are known as exoplanets. Spend a summer weekend barbecuing it up on any of these alien worlds.

(WARNING: Don’t try any of this on Earth—except the last one.)

1. Lava World

Janssen aka 55 Cancri e

Hang your steak on a fishing pole and dangle your meat over the boiling pools of lava on this possible magma world. Try two to three minutes on each side to get an ashy feast of deliciousness.

2. Hot Jupiter

Dimidium aka 51 Pegasi b

Set your grill to 1800 degrees Fahrenheit (982 degrees Celsius) or hop onto the first exoplanet discovered and get a perfect char on your hot dogs. By the time your dogs are done, it’ll be New Year’s Eve, because a year on this planet is only four days long.

3. Super Earth

HD 40307 g

Super air fry your duck on this Super Earth, as you skydive in the intense gravity of a planet twice as massive as Earth. Why are you air frying a duck? We don’t know. Why are you skydiving on an exoplanet? We’re not judging.

4. Lightning Neptune

HAT-P-11b

I’ve got steaks, they’re multiplying/and I’m looooosing control. Cause the power this planet is supplying/is electrifying!

Sear your tuna to perfection in the lightning strikes that could flash across the stormy skies of this Neptune-like planet named HAT-P-11b.

5. Red Earth

Kepler-186f

Tired of all that meat? Try a multi-colored salad with the vibrant plants that could grow under the red sun of this Earth-sized planet. But it could also be a lifeless rock, so BYOB (bring your own barbecue).

6. Inferno World

Kepler-70b

Don’t take too long to prep your vegetables for the grill! The hottest planet on record will flash-incinerate your veggies in seconds!

7. Egg-shaped

WASP-12b

Picture this: You are pressure cooking your chicken on a hot gas giant in the shape of an egg. And you’re under pressure to cook fast, because this gas giant is being pulled apart by its nearby star.

8. Two suns

Kepler-16b

Evenly cook your ribs in a dual convection oven under the dual stars of this “Tatooine.” Kick back and watch your two shadows grow in the fading light of a double sunset.

9. Takeout

Venus

Order in for a staycation in our own solar system. The smell of rotten eggs rising from the clouds of sulfuric acid and choking carbon dioxide will put you off cooking, so get that meal to go.

10. Take a Breath

Earth

Sometimes the best vacations are the ones you take at home. Flip your burgers on the only planet where you can breathe the atmosphere.

Grill us on Twitter and tell us how bad our jokes are.

Theme 7 Memory is done! I'm so glad I finally finished this. In truth, I wanted it done last year, but I was busier (and then sick) than I expected. Oh well. Have a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope yours is off to a great start. 😊

I've finished inking it in! One more step to go (the coloring!) before it's finished. 🔷 Inking drawings seems to always make me a *little* nervous 'cause ink, if you don't know, is very unforgiving; there's no room for error so you either do it right or own up to your mistakes. However, I feel it's very rewarding in the end, as I get to see my idea start coming together. This makes inking my second favorite step in my current art process. 😊 🔷 Side thought: I'm thinking of "reposting" my art pics alongside each other like this so you guys can see my progress. So I hope you guys are okay with seeing repeats as it were, though I'll be showing the newest pic to you first. 🔷 I was hoping to be done with this today, but I've been busy lately getting ready for a family vacation trip. That being said, this may be my last post for the week. Until I get back, I hope you enjoy and see ya later~ 😎 ☀️ 🏞 ⛺

I’ve moved out of my apartment and back home with my family. I’m gonna miss my little peace of heaven, my home away from home. Here’s some assorted pics of quarantine college apt life. Last pic is a The Last of Us Part 2 Ellie outfit I put together for fun. 😷🔫🏹✌🏼 (at Oxford North) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIbShSHZr4GLiNtVkLp5-KtX9CoZlUTKh8pNQ0/?igshid=1xz546dkyu1lw

Love this tip about building expressions!

How To, Step-by-step, Make Expressions Mean Different Things By Changing Just One Facial Feature At A

How to, step-by-step, make expressions mean different things by changing just one facial feature at a time. *shrug* I’m not very good at explaining how I do expressions, I just…feel out what kinds of muscles seem to fit and tweak those. And sometimes, ever so slightly, little adjustments could mean the difference between fury and euphoria.

I've finished inking it in. The amount of times my new micron bled out more ink than I wanted is ridiculous though. At least the line work looks decent overall.⠀ 🔷⠀ I started school again two weeks ago and it's been difficult to find a new groove that works for me. I'm settling into this new schedule slowly but surely, so I hope that I will be able to make more time for drawing in the near future.⠀ 🔷⠀ Enough with my mini vent. I hope you enjoy more details of my OC Helyna at "school." 😊
