Marshmallow Peeps at the Forefront of Space Exploration

Probably inspired by my cutting edge microwave research in smores technology using Marshmallow Peeps, the Adler Planetarium has taken the next logical step and launched Peeps into space .

Be sure to check out the exciting training montage.

Apparently their research involves some attempt at measuring the brightness of space using the luminosity and reflectivity of various colored peeps. I'm sure this is top notch stuff, but not likely to fire the imagination and enthusiasm of children for more peeps related space research. I would suggest further study into the effects of vacuum on elastic materials composed primarily of air pockets. Oh, the humanity!

We applaud these brave and delicious marshmallow confections as they continue to push the boundaries of science.
