Each episode requires a certain amount of research and planning so that we can bring you the best science comedy podcast possible. Last episode, Micaela and Elle planned to talk about the Mysterious Golden Obrs found recently in the ocean. However, when the time came to record the episode, we discovered that there were actually two mysterious golden orbs recently found and we had each researched separate orbs. Of course, we had no choice but to talk about both!
These are the mysterious golden orbs that Micaela and Elle mistakenly thought the other was talking about. Both are golden, both were found in the sea, and both are mysterious, but that’s where the similarities end!
Here’s the Golden Orb made from organic materials. Is it an empty egg sac? Is it some kind of oceanic sea sponge? The orb seems to collapse when it’s out of the ocean, so take a look both under and over the sea.

The other mysterious golden orb we discuss in our episode has also been called a Metallic Spherule. Here’s a photo of this much more structurally sound orb:

Although this golden orb may be an intergalactic orb from way out in space, the “tea” about it is much more terrestrial. Scientists have removed this artifact from Papua New Guinea where it was first found and moved it to another country to investigate it. The people of Papua New Guinea are unsurprisingly angry about this theft. Get the details in our episode!
