ASMR - Exoplanets Cruise (1 hour+ science sleep story)

Listen on Spotify and other music streaming platforms: https://asmrdb.fanlink.to/exoplanets-cruise

This soft spoken ASMR sleep story is a journey to the discovery of exoplanets. We visit some of them, like Proxima Centauri B, OTS 44 and Kepler 438b. I also tell you about the different types of planets and stars, including stars that no longer shine like old white dwarfs or neutron stars; methods to discover planets that are invisible from Earth, like Transit Photometry or Doppler Spectroscopy; and astrobiology: the field of research that studies the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
