May mentioned he 00:04:30.889 --> 00:04:33.430 threw a good bit during a 90 -minute practice 00:04:33.430 --> 00:04:36.610 at Stanford University on Monday, and he is looking 00:04:36.610 --> 00:04:41.290 forward to a normal week of prep.

And now, 00:07:56.389 --> 00:08:00.939 back to the show. Let's talk science. Jupiter 00:08:00.939 --> 00:08:04.699 is not as huge as we thought it was. The solar 00:08:04.699 --> 00:08:07.379 system's largest planet is slightly less of a 00:08:07.379 --> 00:08:10.560 giant than scientists once believed. Jupiter 00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:14.240 is 8 kilometers narrower at its equator and 24 00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:16.939 kilometers flatter at its poles than previously 00:08:16.939 --> 00:08:20.819 estimated, according to a new study. These new 00:08:20.819 --> 00:08:23.879 measurements overturn almost 50 years of consensus 00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:27.990 about the size and shape of Jupiter. Yochai Caspi, 00:08:28.110 --> 00:08:30.550 a professor at the Weizmann Institute of Science 00:08:30.550 --> 00:08:34.490 in Rehovot, Israel, stated, textbooks will need 00:08:34.490 --> 00:08:38.090 to be updated. NASA's Juno mission has allowed 00:08:38.090 --> 00:08:41.889 for clearer observations of Jupiter's size. This 00:08:41.889 --> 00:08:44.529 research will have significant implications for 00:08:44.529 --> 00:08:47.210 studying Jupiter's features and understanding 00:08:47.210 --> 00:08:53.870 how gas giants formed. And in entertainment news... 00:08:54.350 --> 00:08:56.970 Kelly Clarkson is ending her talk show after 00:08:56.970 --> 00:09:00.669 seven seasons. NBC confirms that Clarkson made 00:09:00.669 --> 00:09:03.629 a personal decision to step away from hosting 00:09:03.629 --> 00:09:07.250 this year. Season seven will run through fall 00:09:07.250 --> 00:09:11.169 2026 with a few special guest hosts in between, 00:09:11.629 --> 00:09:13.950 but Clarkson will be present for most of the 00:09:13.950 --> 00:09:17.750 season. Clarkson shared, stepping away from the 00:09:17.750 --> 00:09:20.529 daily schedule will allow me to prioritize my 00:09:20.529 --> 00:09:23.690 kids. which feels necessary and right for this 00:09:23.690 --> 00:09:27.909 next chapter of our lives. She added, I'll still 00:09:27.909 --> 00:09:30.429 be making music, playing shows here and there, 00:09:30.610 --> 00:09:32.990 and you may catch me on The Voice from time to 00:09:32.990 --> 00:09:36.690 time. Clarkson will begin her Las Vegas residency 00:09:36.690 --> 00:09:41.070 this summer. Well, alrighty folks, it's time 00:09:41.070 --> 00:09:45.049 for the quote of the day. And today, our quote 00:09:45.049 --> 00:09:47.850 comes from the British philosopher and mathematician, 00:09:48.590 --> 00:09:52.169 Alfred North Whitehead. And he said, the art 00:09:52.169 --> 00:09:54.929 of progress is to preserve order amid change 00:09:54.929 --> 00:09:59.549 and to preserve change amid order. And that's 00:09:59.549 --> 00:10:02.570 a wrap for this morning.
