Hot Jupiters, one roasted and one with its hot spot in the wrong place.

This week on Planetary Radio.

I'm Sarah al-Ahmad of the Planetary Society, with more of the human adventure across our solar system

and beyond. Coming up, I'm joined by Tiffany Kataria, a research scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory,

and Lisa Dang, assistant professor at the University of Waterloo, to talk about two hot Jupiter

headlines that are straight from the 248th American Astronomical Society meeting.

HD 80606B is an eccentric giant that spends most of its year cold and quiet, then gets slammed

with flash heating for just a day or two as it swings close to its star.

Another exoplanet called Corotubi is a puffed-up world whose hottest point

shows up in an unexpected location. And after that, we'll check in with our chief scientist,

Bruce Betts, for What's Up. If you love planetary radio, I want to stay informed about the latest

I want you all to know that the Planetary Society is hiring. We're looking for a

Salesforce admin slash analyst to join our team here in Pasadena. It's a full-time role focused on

the technical side of our Salesforce CRM platform. That's the system that powers how we manage

membership, process donations, and stay connected with all of you, our members and supporters

around the world. If you've got a Salesforce administrator certification, at least three years

of hand-on development experience, and ideally some familiarity with a non-profit success pack,

we'd love to hear from you. You can find the full job listing and details at planetary.org slash careers.

The first round of application review is going to begin on August 3rd, so you don't want to wait too long.

And now back to our hot Jupiter stories.
