NASA Discovers Planet Covered in Cannabis, Scientists Shocked

NASA announced recently that they have discovered a planet completely covered with cannabis, which has taken scientists by surprise.
Planet X637Z-43, discovered using NASA’s Kepler satellite and located exactly 420 light-years from Earth, is allegedly one of just a few planets close to ours that is potentially habitable, according to NASA experts, who have detected sufficient levels of oxygen and nitrogen to support human life. This is according to a report by CannaSOS.
“We always think young people aren’t interested by anything but it’s false. Young people love smoking pot,” says David Charbonneau, astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. “Chlorophyll concentration analyses generated by Kepler lead us to believe that the level of THC in these marijuana plants is 3000% higher than the plants found on Earth. If that doesn’t motivate young people to explore space, I don’t know what will”.
He continues; “Regardless, marijuana will without a doubt be a valuable and indispensable resource for interstellar trips. Imagine if it takes 140 years to travel from one planet to another, let’s just say it’s going to be a very long trip. You better have rolled yourself a couple of joints for the road,” he admits with humor.
