论文摘要
午餐时间的谈话通常会转变为奇怪而未知的领土。在极少数情况下，这些对话的边界会导致有关我们居住的宇宙的深刻见解。本文详细介绍了一个这样的对话的果实。在本文中，我们将回答以下问题：您需要几头牛形成一个完全由母牛组成的行星，它将支持行星群生产的甲烷大气层？我们不仅会提出基于牛的基础的必要假设和理论，而且还提出了对实现这样的壮举的可行性以及对完成的启示的彻底（且相当强大的）讨论。
More often than not a lunch time conversation will veer off into bizarre and uncharted territories. In rare instances these frontiers of conversation can lead to deep insights about the Universe we inhabit. This paper details the fruits of one such conversation. In this paper we will answer the question: How many cows do you need to form a planetoid entirely comprised of cows, which will support a methane atmoosphere produced by the planetary herd? We will not only present the necessary assumptions and theory underpinning the cow-culations, but also present a thorough (and rather robust) discussion of the viability of, and implications for accomplishing, such a feat.
