Season 3 - Episode 19: I remember one of the very first books that my mother bought me. It was a Bengali kid's book written in a diary entry format from the perspective of an incredibly curious six-year-old kid. The little boy would ask his mom and dad a number of questions, and one that stood out to me the most was, “What are planets?” My five-year-old self read this for the first time and became intrigued by simply learning that there are so many different planets and that there was even the possibility of finding little green men on the planet I learned as being Mars. I can recall just how mind-blown I was, and that initial exposure to the fact that there are so many different planets pushed me to want to discover more about this endless, foreign territory we call space.
