The Milky Way tastes of raspberries and smells like rum:



You probably think that we're talking about the chocolate bar, but in fact we're talking about the actual galaxy!
How can a galaxy taste of raspberries and rum?
As impossible as it sounds, scientists have found traces of the chemical ethyl formate, which gives raspberries their taste and rum its smell!


Scientists made this startling discovery by accident. They were looking for amino acids in the galaxy, which would signal the possibility of life and chanced upon large traces of ethyl formate. While scientists say they are still searching for amino acids, they find it interesting to know what the galaxy would taste like!
